    IN CASE OF FAIR ELECTIONS, "ZHARANGUTIUN" TO GET MAJORITY OF ELECTORS'
    VOTES, PARTY BOARD CHAIRMAN IS SURE


    YEREVAN, MARCH 23, NOYAN TAPAN. The boundless administrative and
    information possibilities will allow the ruling forces to have success
    at the May 12 elections. But, if fair elections are held, the
    "Zharangutiun" (Heritage) party will get the majority of the electors'
    votes, as party leader Raffi Hovannisian enjoys great popularity.
    Vardan Khachatrian, the Chairman of the "Zharangutiun" board made such
    a statement during the debate organized on March 23. In his words,
    data of the sociological surveys held by them prove it. V. Khachatrian
    mentioned that parties are in unequal conditions in the sense of
    presenting their activity by mass media. Proving the said, the
    "Zharangutiun" Board Chairman mentioned that press conferences and
    statements of their party representatives and especially of
    R. Hovhannisian are not covered by the authorities' instruction.

    Hamlet Haroutiunian, a Council member of the Republican Party of
    Armenia (RPA), participating in the debate stated in his turn that the
    authorities have neither problem nor time to put any party in
    information blockade. The republicans' activity, in his words, is
    aimed to solution of other issues, particularly, to anti-corruption
    struggle. "Corruption is everwhere, from Belgium to China: it is the
    mankind's guide. It is impossible to liquidate corruption but it is
    possible to decrease its sizes," H. Haroutiunian said. In his words,
    an exhibition where means assimilated by corrupted officials and then
    taken with the legal bodies' efforts were presented, was recently
    organized even in autoritarian China. Opposing the opponent,
    V. Khachatrian emphasized that unlike China, means stolen by officials
    is never presented anywhere in Armenia, and those officials remain
    unpunished.
