ArmInfo. President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan rules out the possibility
of recurrence of the Mar 1 events after the elections into the Council
of Elders of Yerevan.

"There will be no "June 1." It will be a normal day rather than a
date of tragedy as some newspapers predict," Sargsyan said during a
press-conference today.

"Everybody should be ready to accept any results of the election,
elect the Council of Aldermen, and afterwards the mayor of Yerevan
who will solve the problems of the capital. This is very important
if one takes into account the interest in the election caused among
international structures. This is an interest in democratization
processes in our country, and we always show a positive attitude to
such interest",- he said.
