LEVON TER-PETROSYAN WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE ELECTIONS
[05:37 pm] 09 February, 2007

Why does first President of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrosyan keep silent? `In my
opinion he has no place in today’s political field’, said member of the
Armenian Pan-National Movement administration Hovhannes Igityan. According
to him, some people may agree with Ter-Petrosyan’s ideas, others may not,
but `no one can say that he is not a politician, or he entered the world of
politics for the sake of his own welfare’.

`Even those people who betrayed him, still respect him, not because he was a
President, but because he is different’, Hovhannes Igityan announced.

The Armenian Pan-National Movement will participate in the upcoming
Parliamentary elections, but most probably the first President of the RA
will not top any list. `I don’t think Levon Ter-Petrosyan would like to
participate in the elections’.

Hovhannes Igityan announced that when the Movement quit politics in 1998,
the country was deprived not only of the authorities which had ideology, but
also of the opposition which had ideology. In any case the member of the
Movement Administration considers that the present authorities have lost the
game, as they go to the elections armed and accompanies with bodyguards.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
