YEREVAN. - The phase of negotiations with Armenia's authorities is
over because 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-does not recognize Sargsyan as a representatives
of the authorities, as an official. Heritage's National Assembly (NA)
Faction Secretary Zaruhi Postanjyan announced this during Friday's
NA briefings with news reporters.
"On [Tuesday,] April 9, on the day of his inauguration, Serzh Sargsyan
conducted his funeral in the political sense. Serzh Sargsyan does
not exist as an official," she noted.
To the query as to what the people have gained from the cooperation
between Hovannisian and Police Chief Vladimir Gasparyan, Postanjyan
responded that the main achievement was that Gasparyan, who is one
of Sargsyan's "pillars," did not mark Sargsyan's "fake" inauguration.
Instead, and together with 8,000 police officers, he marked the
creation of a "New Armenia."
"We were tasked to prevent clashes between the police and the
opposition, and we achieved our objective," Zaruhi Postanjyan
maintained.
