In case of necessity, Andrias Ghouakssyan is ready to repeat his
hunger strike joining Raffi Hovannisian. Head of Radio Hay Andrias
Ghoukassyan made such statement talking to ArmInfo.
Raffi Hovannisian went on hunger strike on March 10 and will continue
it till April 9, the day of the president's inauguration. Ghoukassyan
said that Hovannisian must not stop hunger strike unless his demands
are fulfilled.
"At present there are no reasons to stop the hunger strike.
Hovannisian s in good health state and his demands have not been
fulfilled. Consequently, the fight is continued," he said.
Ghoukassyan said that the Constitutional Court's decision was not
unexpected for him, as the structure has never been impartial.
"We were expected such decision, but it is one of the civilized ways to
settle the conflict. All this once again showed that the Constitutional
Court protects the interests of the authorities," Ghoukassyan said. As
for possible aggressive steps by the people and repetition of the March
1 scenario at the March 15 rally, Ghoukassyan said that Hovannisian's
team is well trained and will not yield to provocations. "However,
one can expect such actions from the authorities known with their
criminal and oligarchic specifics," he said.
On March 14 the Constitutional Court of Armenia rejected the claims
of former candidates for president of Armenia Raffi Hovannisian
and Andreas Ghukasyan, who demanded declaring the presidential
election results invalid. The Constitutional Court considers that
the violations fixed at 46 polling stations can be removed by means
of reforms. Heritage Party has already declared that its decision on
the further fight will be announced at a rally on March 15.
