    EX-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE DEMANDS ARMENIAN PRESIDENT'S RESIGNATION

    Ex-presidential candidate Vardan Sedrakyan does not accept the
    presidential election results and demands Serzh Sargsyan's resignation.

    He also calls on opposition MPs to resign.

    At his meeting with journalists on Thursday he said that, irrespective
    of the number of votes cast for individual candidates, "everything
    was nothing but mere drawing."

    "We have forty days before Serzh Sargsyan's inauguration [on April 9]
    to prevent the event and fix a date for a new presidential election,"
    he said.

    "My demand is Serzh Sargsyan's resignation. If he wants, let his run in
    the new presidential election. If he is sure that people are supporting
    him, let his hold fair elections and won," Mr Sedrakyan said.

    According to him, all the political parties have much to do for
    democratic movement.

    "In protest, the Heritage MPs must resign from parliament. Then
    presidential candidate Hrant Bagratyan must resign. The Armenian
    Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun (ARF-D) and the Armenian
    National Congress (ANC) must follow them. This must be done in protest
    at injustice," he said.

    Mr Sedrakyan cannot understand Heritage party Chairman Raffi
    Hovannisian's steps. Although Mr Sedrakyan is not going to Freedom
    Square, he is for the national movement.

    He also intends to participate in the ANC rally scheduled for March 1.
