"The first President of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrosyan is the only
contender able to win Prime Minister Serzh Sargsyan at presidential
election", Chairman of the Armenian National Movement, ruling in 90th,
Ararat Zurabyan told ArmInfo.

He said it is enough to question 10 most known political figures in
order to find out who they consider the eminent politician in the
country after them.

"After himself, everyone will call the name of Levon Ter-Petrosyan. I
can say about it with confidence based on the common political
analysis and impressions from negotiations with the oppositional
party leaders. Talking of the strong features of Ter-Petrosyan as
a presidential contender, I mean his entire multilateral potential
that may lead to the victory", A. Zurabyan said.

Asked if it won’t be difficult to return the former president to the
active political life, A. Zurabyan replied that there were many cases
of return of ex-leaders to the higher posts in the state. "It is enough
to give an example of Charles de Goll, who went off the policy and
then returned to the president’s post with triumph. Another example
with Eduard Shevarnadze in Georgia and Heidar Aliyev in Azerbaijan",
the oppositionist said.
