ArmInfo. On May 31 Armenian authorities demonstrated their essence
to people once again, the first president of Armenia, Leader of the
Armenian National Congress Levon Ter-Petrosyan said at the opposition
rally near Matenadaran, Friday.

"If someone in Armenia had some illusions about the true intentions
of the authorities before the elections, after the past elections
these illusions dispensed as Serzh Sargsyan demonstrated that he is
not at all striving to consolidate the Armenian society",- he said.

He thinks if over the days of President Robert Kocharyan different
force departments were the main instrument of crimes and the main
obstacle on the way of democracy establishing in Armenia, the situation
has changed when Sargsyan came to power, and criminal structures
connected with the authorities took their place.

‘On 31 May practically at all the ballot stations everybody saw
skinheads which were "controlling" the election. Just these street
gangs represent today’s the incumbent authorities, just they are
their face. And the last elections demonstrated it once again’, –
Ter-Petrosyan concluded.
