Armenian opposition MP concerned over Raffi Hovannisian=?UTF-8?B?4oCZ?=s appeal

Lyudmila Sargsyan, an MP from the opposition bloc Armenian National Congress (ANC), is surprised at the fact that Chairman of the Heritage party Raffi Hovannisian, who has been engaged in political activities for a long time and participated in several elections, believes that Armenia's incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan may come to Freedom Square and hand power over to the people. "I think that is too naïve. Mr Hovannisian seems to have no clear idea of the country he is living in and what he should expect from the authorities," Ms Sargsyan told Tert.am.She believed Mr Hovannisian might have ensured a massive rally on Tuesday and done his best for the rally to continue for a few days."Due to that pressure he might have had the election results revised somehow, by means of the Constitutional Court, if he is sure he has won," Ms Sargsyan said.As to the possibility of the ANC supporting Mr Hovannisian's demand, Ms Sargsyan not only rules it out, but also object s to such a scenario. "I cannot accede to a demand that I know will never be met."
