"The authorities are the responsible number one for the elections,
because they are obliged to ensure equal conditions for all
the political forces", Chairman of Orinats Yerkir party, Arthur
Baghdasaryan, stated today. In his words, there are not similar
conditions today, as the representatives of the power wing enjoy
numerous, including administrative, financial advantages, as well a
privilege to be on air.
"Yesterday one of the TV companies already announced that one minute
will cost 100,000 drams. We are concerned over the high tariffs
of the air", Baghdasaryan said, noting that it seems that the same
conditions are for all, but the authorities have privileges, as the
oppositionists do not possess such financial resources. "We proposed to
calculate the tariff on the basis of minimum salary. But our proposal
was not adopted", Baghdasaryan informed, reminding that though the
international structures are not implementing an observation mission
yet, nevertheless, they watch the processes attentively.
The leader of OYP says that for having fair elections it would be
right if the authorities displayed a political will and really ensured
equal opportunities for all the political forces.
In the opinion of Arthur Baghdasaryan the opposition forces are no less
responsible for the normal conduct of the elections. In his words,
the opposition must struggle. "I am not so romantic to hope that the
elections will do their best for normal elections. The opposition
must struggle", he underlined.
