BORIS NAVASARDYAN: HOLDING NEW ELECTION IS THE ONLY DEMAND NOT RUNNING COUNTER THE CONSTITUTION
12:08 21/02/2013 ” COMMENTS
President of Yerevan Press Club Boris Navasardyan posted a statement
on his Facebook page regarding the demands made by Raffi Hovannisian.
The statement says, in part, “Let’s assess the situation
realistically. Serzh Sargsyan has no right, even if he wanted it,
to pass the power to anyone, even to Raffi Hovannisian, at 14:00 on
February 21. He can step down from his post, Hovik Abrahamyan will be
Acting President and new election will be appointed. Vote recount is
another option. If the winner changes after vote recount, the election
should be invalidated and then see above. There is perhaps no other
option that would not run counter the Constitution and the laws. So
holding new election is the only fair demand. All other options are
from the field of coup or political commerce.”
