    NO ONE HAS RIGHT TO SAY ANYTHING TO OUR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS - ARMENIAN OPPOSITION LEADER

    March 01, 2013 | 13:12

    YEREVAN. - I always prefer classes rather than their boycott, but no
    one has the right to say anything to our university students.

    Armenia's opposition Heritage Party Chairman Raffi Hovannisian-who
    is declared runner-up to the winner, incumbent President Serzh
    Sargsyan, as a result of the presidential election on February 18,
    but who claims to be the real winner in the vote-stated this Friday,
    during an open-air press conference in capital city Yerevan's Liberty
    Square, commenting on the ongoing demonstrations that are staged
    nearby several of the country's institutions of higher education.

    "No one has a right to raise their hands against, to punish
    our students. It is these very students that ought to be in the
    universities, whereas the election-violating 'bosses' should come
    out of the university," he noted.

    As per Hovannisian, there was widespread fraud on Election Day. And
    speaking on the resignation of some officials, Heritage's leader
    specifically said:

    "I am confident that they have thousands of election fraud evidence. I
    am glad that there is the [resignation] process, but it should not
    be partial."

    To the query as to why he does not demand President Sargsyan's
    resignation during the rallies, Hovannisian responded: "We will speak
    tomorrow [Saturday]."

    The news reporters also asked why the members of Raffi Hovannisian's
    family are not citizens of Armenia to this day, and his sons have
    not served in the Armenian Armed Forces.

    "My sons and my family are in service all through their lives, and I
    am very glad that my son, Armen Richard, has applied and been granted
    citizenship of Armenia at the age of sixteen," he noted. Furthermore,
    it turns out that, after receiving the citizenship of Armenia himself,
    Hovannisian had applied to be called up for army duty, but he was
    rendered ineligible for military service due to his age.

    To note, following the press conference, Raffi Hovannisian headed,
    with a march, to the Myasnikyan statue to pay respects to the victims
    of the tragedy that occurred nearby the area on March 1, 2008.
