"The freedom less and unjust people is a result of the freedom
less and unjust government," Artur Baghdasaryan, leader of Legal
State and the party’s candidate for president, said today at
Legal State’s convention. The candidate stated that even though
the current authorities are speaking about free elections, yet are
buying people’s votes, are speaking about free competition, yet are
promoting monopolies, and are talking about a free justice system,
yet the system is under the watchful eye of the authorities. As
he presented, the most important issue today is the interpretation
of the Constitution, as today people’s rights are being trampled,
people’s rights are being limited, criminalism and corruption are
being institutionalized, and both television and the courts are being
carefully watched over by the ruling authorities.
Referring to Legal State’s ability to free the country of its problems,
Baghdasaryan said that as part of the government for three years,
his party attempted to its best ability to do this, but, as the system
wouldn’t buckle, his party found itself in the oppositional field.
"We are struggling for democracy, for a competitive and free state,"
he said, adding that as important as victory is, it can’t be gained
by bribery.
The Legal State president said that they would do their best to prevent
violations in the upcoming elections, in any way possible, adding that
sadly the past shows that free elections have still not taken place,
and speaking about them has become nothing but a "political bluff."
