Geghamian’s Rating Rises More and More, National Unity Assures

ARTASHES GEGHAMIAN’S RATING RISES MORE AND MORE, NATIONAL UNITY
VICE-CHAIRMAN ASSURES

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 1, NOYAN TAPAN. The election campaign of Artashes
Geghamian, a candidate for presidency, the Chairman of the National
Unity party, proceeds successfully. Sargis Muradkhanian, the party
Vice-Chairman, the head of the candidate’s Yerevan headquarters, said
at the February 1 press conference. He is convinced that A. Geghamian
will be elected RA President, as the latter’s rating rises more and
more.

At the same time, S. Muradkhanian said that though their candidate’s
election campaign proceeds successfully, some "good-for-nothing
politicians" with their speeches try to distract him from his main
business. "I mean the discrediting statements voiced by presidential
candidate L. Ter-Petrosian’s supporters addressed to A. Geghamian," he
explained adding that "these people hearing L. Ter-Petrosian’s name
imagine new time for robbery."

In A. Muradkhanian’s opinion, looking at the people standing near the
first RA President one may suppose that this candidate will lose the
elections. In his words, "L. Ter-Petrosian is the project of the
authorities," and his goal is to destabilize the situation. In the
opinion of the National Unity Vice-Chairman, L. Ter-Petrosian always
instigates the people for conflicts, in which the authorities do not
interfere. He said that they are against conflicts and do explanatory
work among the population to exclude them.
