    ONLY FIVE MINUTES - ARF-D REP

    22:28 ~U 03.05.13

    The Armenian Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun (ARF-D) has
    started its rally in Charles Aznavour Square, in Yerevan.

    The ARF-D's meeting with voters was preceded by an ARF-D Board
    meeting. The Board members are to supervise the election process in
    polling stations.

    Artsvik Minasyan opened the rally. The ARF-D has managed to hold
    meetings in all of Yerevan's administrative districts.

    The ARF-D expects voters to support it in the May 5 municipal elections
    thus forming "a Yerevan of national unity and new city authorities
    capable of changing Armenia."

    The ARF-D is the only political force with its list topped by an ARF-D
    Supreme Body member, Armen Rustamyan, followed by Aghvan Vardanyan
    and Arsen Hambartsumyan.

    Vahan Hovhannisyan, a Bureau member, Armenian Revolutionary Federation
    Dashnaktsutyun (ARF-D), made a speech at a rally.

    The incumbent Yerevan mayor's team can win the May 5 elections to
    Yerevan's Council of Elders only by rigging them.

    "You can see our justice and confidence. You must realize the moment
    if the capital assuming responsibility for leading the country.

    Yerevan is now responsible for building up free Armenia," he said.

    Free Armenia begins with free voting.

    He called for putting an end to emigration. "We are playing with our
    country's destiny," he said.

    The ruling Republican Party of Armenia's retaining power (RPA) in
    Yerevan poses the greatest threat. If the ARF-D wins the elections,
    it will call to account the incumbent officials, Hovhannisyan said.

    Secretary of the ARF-D parliamentary group Aghvan Vardanyan made a
    speech at the rally.

    "Let the ones that do not want any changes in their life vote for the
    ruling party and for the small parties surrounding it. Nothing will
    change. Moreover, the situation will even worsen. The one wishing
    changes, a healthy competition must vote for the ARF-D," he said.

    Election rigging and bribes, emigration and poverty are thriving
    in Armenia.

    "We stated Taron Margaryan was a come-and-go mayor. We stated he was
    a bad manager and cited facts," he said.

    Armen Rustamyan, who tops the ARF-D list in the Yerevan municipal
    elections, made a speech at the rally.

    "Let us spend just five minutes and vote for number five and we will
    see the dawn come in five days," he said.

    The ARF-D -proposed ways out of the situation are not at all new. But
    other political forces are misappropriating their ideas.

    According to Rustamyan, Armenia's people benefited when they voted
    for the ARF-D, which has always led the struggle.

    "If you want a revolution by means of elections, let us do it on May
    5. We failed to start changing the situation with a change of the
    president. But I can assure you that we can do so by changing the
    Yerevan mayor," Rustamyan said.
