Ex-president of Armenia: rallies are likely after elections

Ex-president of Armenia, leader of the opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) Levon Ter-Petrossian commented on the violations occurring during May 6 parliamentary vote which the interparty anti-forgery headquarters has registered.

The headquarters comprises ANC, Prosperous Armenia party and ARF Dashnaktsutyun.

“We will do the same as we did during all other elections: appeal against violations using all legal methods,” Ter-Petrossian said adding that opposition forces used to act independently while now they are united.

When asked by journalists whether rallies may be held after the voting, he said rallies are also a legal method of struggle.

Asked whether upheavals like those in 2008 are possible, opposition leader offered the journalists to address the authorities with such question because the opposition did not violate the law back in 2008, and statements of the international structures’ representatives come to prove this.
