YEREVAN, JANUARY 17, NOYAN TAPAN. The preelection program of Tigran
Karapetian, the Chairman of the People's Party, a candidate for
presidency, will be published on January 21. The candidate said this
at the January 17 press conference. The PP Chairman also said that 100
preelection headquarters have been opened. They include all regions
of Armenia, except Syunik. The lists of the empowered persons, who
will work at polling stations, are also ready.
According to T. Karapetian, he is people's, alternative candidate
and is the only one among the candidates, who really enjoys people's
love. Touching upon the candidates considered favorites, he said:
"In our political sphere there is a tradition of singling out those,
who seem to be strong. Can only those, being in power currently or
formerly, be reproduced, aren't there any other persons in Armenia?
Answering the question of a correspondent of the Chorrord Ishkhanutiun
newspaper of whether the PP Chairman has an apprehension that during
the election campaign he will be accused of being a pickpocket in
his youth, T. Karapetian said that he is not anxious about that. He
advised journalists to be anxious about the accusations brought to
first President Levon Ter-Petrosian by the head of the National Unity
party, according to which, a number of murders were committed in the
years of the first President's tenure.
