YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 25, NOYAN TAPAN. The radical opposition is sure
that unless the authorities falsify the elections, its candidate, Board
Chairman of the Armenian National Movement party Ararat Zurabian will
gain a convincing victory in the September 28 elections of Yerevan's
Kentron community. Suren Sureniants, a member of the Political Board
of the Hanrapetutiun (Republic) party, stated at the September 25
dispute. In response to the question of why the Council of Europe has
decided to carry out a monitoring mission only in the Kentron Yerevan
community, he said that Kentron is Yerevan's heart, besides, that
community's local self-government elections can play a considerable
role on the threshold of the forthcoming Mayor's elections.
Karen Avagian, a representative of the Republican Party of Armenia
(RPA), in his turn, stated that the Council of Europe has chosen the
Kentron community for a monitoring mission as the struggle will be hot
in that territory due to emphasized pro-governmental and opposition
candidates' running for the elections.
Touching upon RA Police Chief Alik Sargsian's statement made the day
before that law enforcers' patience to unauthorized rallies may be
exhausted, S. Sureniants stated: "We will do what we want irrespective
of the extent of A. Sargsian's anger." In response to the question
of why after the last rally the leadership of the Armenian National
Congress decided to yield to the persuasions of policemen and gave up
the march, S. Sureniants said that people's security is too important
for the opposition.
Responding to these words, K. Avagian asked ironically whether people's
security is important for the Armenian National Congress. "It has
always been important: in any case, the opposition has never organized
murders in the Aragast cafe, in the National Assembly, and in the
streets," Hanrapetutiun's representative stated.
