ARMENIAN OPPOSITION MP CONCERNED OVER RAFFI HOVANNISIAN'S APPEAL
TERT.AM
22:34 ~U 19.02.13
Lyudmila Sargsyan, an MP from the opposition bloc Armenian National
Congress (ANC), is surprised at the fact that Chairman of the Heritage
party Raffi Hovannisian, who has been engaged in political activities
for a long time and participated in several elections, believes that
Armenia's incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan may come to Freedom
Square and hand power over to the people.
"I think that is too naïve. Mr Hovannisian seems to have no clear
idea of the country he is living in and what he should expect from
the authorities," Ms Sargsyan told Tert.am.
She believed Mr Hovannisian might have ensured a massive rally on
Tuesday and done his best for the rally to continue for a few days.
"Due to that pressure he might have had the election results revised
somehow, by means of the Constitutional Court, if he is sure he has
won," Ms Sargsyan said.
As to the possibility of the ANC supporting Mr Hovannisian's demand, Ms
Sargsyan not only rules it out, but also objects to such a scenario. "I
cannot accede to a demand that I know will never be met."
