Raffi Hovannisian, who officially finished second in last month's
presidential election and is now disputing the victory of incumbent
President Serzh Sargsyan, has vowed to continue his struggle for
de jure presidency as he again rallied his supporters in Yerevan
on Tuesday.
Addressing several thousand people in the Armenian capital's Liberty
Square, Hovannisian slammed President Sargsyan and two other top
officials for not accepting his invitation to attend the gathering or
seeking to meet him otherwise to discuss ways of ending the current
post-election crisis.
"Now we have nothing to say [to them], we have to act and we won't
get diverted from our path," stressed the opposition leader.
Hovannisian also called on other political forces to participate in
what he described as 'a resolution of the all-national crisis'. He said
he had already met with top representatives of the Prosperous Armenia
Party, Dashnaktsutyun, the Sardarapat movement and was ready to meet
with the leadership of the opposition Armenian National Congress if
the latter were willing to have such a meeting.
Hovannisian announced that he will spend the next two days again
touring the regions and meeting with representatives of foreign
diplomatic corps in-between before holding another rally in Yerevan
on March 8.
Answering skeptics who insist that he has no action plan, the
opposition leader promised that they will see a "breakthrough" by
next Sunday.
