"Levon Ter-Petrosian has no future, but I want him to announce his
candidacy in order the people bring him to end and not him", announced
the Chairman of the National Democratic Party (NDP) Shavarsh Kocharian
in "Urbat" club, on September 25. He also mentioned that the enter
of the first president into electoral campaign is profitable for the
present-day authorities, as today's authorities seem ideological as
compared with the former authorities. "That man spoke after 10-years of
silence and proved his only big sequence to cede Nagorno Karabakh. In
opposite, nowadays authorities haven't yet shown any signs of intention
to cede."
'That man came and said three things: to settle the Nagorno Karabakh
issue by ceding it, to develop the country destroying the system and
returning to democracy. But it's not acceptable to join a person who
has a program of ceding and destroying".
According to NDP leader, before the presidential elections the society
must form a clear order directed to the authorities and candidates
to overcome inner and foreign challenges.
"There are three issues from this point of view.
Firstly, a qualitative growth of economy in order to provide the
competition of the economy in the region, secondly, creation of the
power of law and its reinforcement, and thirdly, the proportional
development of the Republic of Armenia. The result of these will be
repatriation and the international recognition of Nagorno Karabakh",
he underlined.
According to Shavarsh Kocharian, the present position of the opposition
will not lead to a joint candidate, and in order to do the opposite
they are to carry on a political and ideological struggle as soon as
possible. "I don't see any obligation to join one of the candidates,
as Levon Ter-Petrosian is not an alternative, and Serge Sargsian
cannot be an alternative to himself."
