Representative of Justice opposition bloc at the Armenian Central
Electoral Commission, a member of People's Party of Armenia,
Felix Khachatryan called CEC Chairman Garegin Azaryan "stupid and
illiterate."
Speaking at a press conference, Wednesday, he mentioned that on
May 19 meeting of the Commission, Garegin Azaryan stated that Felix
Khachatryan was included in the ticket of Justice bloc during the
parliamentary election of 2003 being a member of CEC. "Heading CEC for
already 4 years, Garegin Azaryan has not even read the Election Code
and the Constitution. Otherwise, he would know that the law does not
ban a member of CEC to run for parliament on the proportional system."
He said that representatives of the Republican Party of Armenia and
United Labour Party are also members of CEC and ran for parliament on
the proportional system. "If Azaryan a man of principle, why didn't
he notice that RPA ticket includes deputy ministers, vice governors,
prefects, which is banned by the law?" Felix Khachatryan asked.
He is sure that Garegin Azaryan's allegations against him were just
"an attempt to catch a representative of the opposition in violation
of the law." "It is nothing but a display of stupidity and illiteracy,"
he concluded.
