YEREVAN. - As the Armenian governmental sources of Hraparak daily
inform, they agree with opposition Heritage Party Chairman, former FM
Raffi Hovannisian - who was declared runner-up to the winner, incumbent
President Serzh Sargsyan, as a result of the presidential election
that was conducted on February 18, but who claims to be the real
winner in the vote - holding a public meeting and a march on April
99 - that is, the day when President Sargsyan is scheduled to formally
swear in for a second term in office, and also when Hovannisian
likewise plans to swear in, at capital city Yerevan's Liberty Square,
as Armenia's new president - , but Hovannisian should not `usurp' power,
that is, he should hold a swearing-in ceremony and put his hand upon
the Holy Bible, the daily reports.
`Incidentally, our PAP [that is, Prosperous Armenia Party] sources
inform that [PAP Chairman and businessman] Gagik Tsarukyan strictly
instructed party members that none of them tries to attend Raffi
Hovannisian's swearing-in `ceremony,' march, and, or [public] meeting
on April 9. According to our PAP interlocutor, aside from [the fact]
that Heritage is their contender, arrangement is made `at the above'
as to how they should behave `with respect to' the [capital city
Yerevan] Council elections [which are slated for May 5].
[And Armenia's] Armavia [Airline Company, which recently declared that
it will commence a bankruptcy process] is the primary axis of the
arrangement. Tsarukyan said if the salary and other debts [of Armavia]
are paid, he will purchase it. And, apparently, the son of [PAP MP,
former FM Vartan] Oskanian will purchase the cement factory of Mika
Baghdasarov [who is Armavia's proprietor],' Hraparak writes.
