"Why did I go to the presidential residence on foot? ... because
I have no complexes, because I have no fear in my homeland. I can
show respect and demand adequate response. I showed my respect [for
Serzh Sargsyan] and at the same time demanded that he recognize the
victory of our people. But he gave me a negative answer," Heritage
party leader Raffi Hovannisian said at Liberty Square on Friday.
"I suggested calling a new presidential election instead of drinking
campaign but he refused my offer. Then I said, "If you are not ready
for a new election, then punish all election riggers, including
regional governors, heads of headquarters and communities, ministers
and lawmakers," Raffi Hovannisian said commenting on his yesterday's
meeting with Serzh Sargsyan.
"You (Serzh Sargsyan) are obliged to punish everyone without exception,
you should publicly say that you will do it and you have proofs for
doing this. Second, if you are not ready to do this and you do not
have opportunity to do and recognize the power of people, then do
not be offended by me," continue Mr Hovannisian.
"Third I said, "Well, Mr Sargsyan, let us shift to the full
proportional voting system and call extraordinary parliamentary
elections but he again he gave a negative reply. I have nothing else
to say. I just want to remind that our soldiers must protect our
borders and our territorial integrity. The person, who will try to
'direct' our soldiers, will have to deal with me and Armenian people.
We are committed to continue out struggle in a peaceful and
constitutional way. Tomorrow we shall 'take the victory' to Armenian
cities. We shall visit Ashtarak, Vanadzor, Gyumri and on Sunday we
shall return to Yerevan and rally our supporters here at 3 p.m. I
want to inform Yerevan Mayor, who did not authorize our rally, that
we shall seize every and each opportunity to bring our citizens to
Liberty Square. Are you ready to win? I am ready!" said Mr Hovannisian.
