Raffi Hovannisian Declares Hunger Strike Until Sargsyan Resigns
Yerevan--Today before thousands at Liberty Square Raffi K. Hovannisian
declared a hunger strike until Serzh Sargsyan resigns and formally
concedes the Armenian people's victory in the February 18 presidential
election.
`If on April 9, the Archbishop puts Serzh Sargsyan's hand on the Bible
and in the name and breath of God swears in a false president, he will
do so over my dead body,' Hovannisian said.
Hovannisian announced that he will not leave Liberty Square during the
strike and that any de facto authority, including Sargsyan, who wishes
to meet with him must do so at the square. Before making his way to
his strike spot on a square bench, he urged people not think of this
as a typical hunger strike. `This is a fraud strike, a fear strike, a
lie strike,' he said.
During the rally in Liberty Square, parallel rallies were held in
Artashat and Kapan at which Raffi Hovannisian's representatives
addressed the public.
Tomorrow, on March 11, the Armenian Constitutional Court will hear the
case of Raffi Hovannisian's claim against the Central Election
Committee to nullify the official results of the February 18 election.
The court session begins at 10 am.
Raffi Hovannisian: `This is a fraud strike, a fear strike, a lie strike.'
