Story from Lragir.am News:
Open letter to the RA presidential candidates Aram Harutiunyan,
Arman Melikyan, Hrant Bagratyan, Paruir Hairikyan, Vardan Sedrakyan,
Raffi Hovannisian
Dear gentlemen,
The public whose rights are not safeguarded while the entire state
power is in the hands of one political force has actually been deprived
of its Constitution.
A politician is the one who assumes the duty of protecting the rights
of the society. Today we have the right to draft a new political
agenda for Armenia. At the same time, we bear responsibility for the
political future of the country. I propose to withdraw jointly from
the election designed and predetermined by the RPA and initiate a
civil movement for fundamental changes.
I am sure that the civil movement against the criminal oligarchic
system led by Paruir Hairikyan, Raffi Hovannisian and Hrant Bagratyan
will succeed. I also believe that the other presidential candidates
will also assess the situation correctly and prefer national interest
to personal interest.
The public expects practical steps from us, not a meaningless fight
for the so-called second place. I appeal to initiate a new political
situation in the Republic of Armenia through a joint withdrawal on
January 15.
Best regards,
Andrias Ghukasyan
