Opposition MP predicts riot in Armenia
19:09 - 15.05.13
Levon Zurabyan, Head of the Armenian National Congress (ANC)
parliamentary group, says that cooperation with the Prosperous Armenia
Party (PAP) has produced essential results.
An interview with the A1plus TV channel admitted the ANC lost some of
its electorate and had to seek new resources, finding the PAP.
`We lost some of our electorate for two major reasons. First, forty
percent of our electors emigrated from Armenia. Secondly, election
bribes and frauds have struck even deeper roots in people's mind over
the last six years, and we have become weaker,' he said.
`But the environment and rules of the game are changing, and the
struggle is getting harder. So we have to look for new resources and I
believe our cooperation with the PAP has produced tangible results,'
Zurabyan said.
Armenia is gradually moving to a riot, he said.
As regards the announced rise in the gas price and no public response
followed, Zurabyan said: `They [people] will take to the streets.
Different signs are available. Different protests take place. A
rebellious movement is being formed, and it will launch its activities
when people will not be able to give their children any food,' he
said.
Asked if he will accept Heritage party leader Raffi Hovannisian's
proposal for a meeting with political forces, Zurabyan said he does
not know anything about the invitation.
