'NO ONE CAN BREAK OUR WILL' - LEVON TER-PETROSYAN
18:37 ~U 30.04.13
The Armenian National Congress (ANC) party has started its rally in
Yerevan's Freedom Square.
ANC leader, Armenia's first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan, Vahagn
Khachatryan (who tops the ANC list in the elections to Yerevan's
Council of Elders) and other members are to speak at the rally.
Speaking at the rally, Vladimir Karapetyan, who is on the ANC list
in the upcoming elections to Yerevan's Council of Elders, expressed
the confidence that the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA)
will suffer defeat.
"A competent and politically conscious voter cannot vote for a greedy
person that cannot speak his native language. The RPA candidate is
known to be avoiding debates with his rivals. He is phobic about the
moment of explaining the sources of his fortune," he said.
"Cannot any member of the ruling party explain the sources of an
official's fortune? No, they cannot because they cannot imagine an
honestly paid official," Karapetyan said.
"I feel Taron has won in the category 'the cleverest RPA member with
the cleanest hands.' He must be the 'cleanest' in the ruling party
because he tops its list in the May 5 elections," Karapetyan said.
He is indignant that the RPA candidate is surrounded by the "Yerevan
crime kingpins."
ANC Spokesman Arman Musinyan (3rd on the ANC list in the upcoming
elections to Yerevan's Council of Elders), said that, despite
the population's great disappointment at the Feb. 18 presidential
election, the ANC succeeded in explaining the importance of the
municipal elections to voters.
"Our election campaign showed the population's utter contempt for
the ruling regime," he said.
The misinformation the authorities are disseminating through some
media outlets shows they are afraid of the ANC's potential and its
political team.
Victory in the upcoming elections is only possible due to "effective
opposition to the ruling party's planned frauds."
ANC leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan made a speech at the rally.
He spoke of the recent presidential election and of the upcoming
elections to Yerevan's Council of Elders.
The ANC rejects anyone that is not ready for a consistent struggle.
The ANC is "accustomed to blows," and no one can hope they can break
the ANC's will and force it to give up.
Although the rally highlighted the upcoming municipal elections,
Ter-Petrosyan recalled his last public meeting ten months ago.
On February 18, the gang rule managed to retain power by means
of election frauds and pressure. However, the people delivered a
powerful blow. According to official data, opposition candidates
received about 42% of votes.
In the context of the upcoming municipal elections, Ter-Petrosyan
called on all the opposition forces to reject recriminations and
combine their efforts to "free Armenia's capital from captivity"
on May 5.
"I am sure that, just a couple of months after the presidential
election, when the people are still in a spirit of struggle, we can
take this chance. And the country's opposition forces would commit
a gross blunder if they missed this chance," Ter-Petrosyan said
