Heritage party leader Raffi Hovannisian, the official runner-up in
last month’s presidential election, says he will be glad if Serzh
Sargsyan agrees to meet to discuss the post-election standoff in the
country. Hovannisian said this during his meeting with journalists in
Freedom Square where he is staging a hunger strike in protest against
the outcome of the February ballot that gave victory to Serzh Sargsyan.

We can meet with Serzh Sargsyan at one of the cafes in the square,
and people can follow our meeting,” said Hovannisian.

The Heritage party leader says he will not take any position in
state institutions.

“My conscience will not allow me to close a deal with Serzh Sargsyan.

Our demands remain unchanged. If Serzh Sargsyan wants, he can also
present his proposals but he must share the power with the people,”
Raffi Hovannisian said stressing that the people are the only
legitimate source of power.

Mr Hovannisian also referred to his party’s list in the upcoming
elections to the Council of Elders.

“We are participating in the election in a fusion ticket and I endorse
it. This is a triumphant list,” he said.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
