ArmInfo. "Three high ranking employees of the Armenian Ministry of
Trade and Economic Development have joined our movement", presidential
candidate Levon Ter-Petrosyan said at a multi-thousand rally of his
supporters at Liberty Square in Yerevan, Monday.
These employees are Vahagn Ghazaryan, the head of the department
for cooperation with EU and the World Trade Organization, Zohrab
Hovhannisyan, the head of the department for cooperation with
interstate and international organizations, and Arman Sarukhanyan,
an expert in gold processing and jewellery.
Levon Ter-Petrosyan expressed his content with the protest action
initiated by him and his supporters. Due to the protest action, Armenia
is in the focus of the whole world's attention. He noted that he met
Head of the OSCE/ODIHR Observation Mission Geert Ahrens, Monday, and he
will meet Foreign Minister of Slovakia, Chairman of the CoE Committee
of Ministers Jan Kubis on February 26. Ter-Petrosyan is sure that the
European Union and NATO will shortly appear with statements blaming the
actions of the Armenian authorities during the presidential election.
As regards the arrests of some oppositionists, Ter-Petrosyan believes
that whatever the authorities are undertaking is turning against
their own selves: by arresting the oppositionists they are making
heroes of them.
Ter-Petrosyan said that today the police demanded that his bodyguards
should hand over all the arms they had. "The law says that my personal
bodyguards are allowed to carry arms. If the authorities don't like
this let them change the law," Ter-Petrosyan said.
The termless protest action at Liberty Square still continues.
