Decision 2013: Pashinyan says people trust Hovannisian

Nikol Pashinyan, an outspoken oppositionist who served a jail term for his role in the 2008 post-election riot, has spoken about possible support to Raffi Hovannisian, an opposition leader who has claimed victory in the February 18 election officially won by the incumbent.

In a statement released on Tuesday Pashinyan commented on his presence at the gathering of Hovannisian in Yerevan's Liberty Square earlier that day. At what was described as a press conference in the square the official runner-up in the presidential race called on President Serzh Sargsyan to admit his defeat and start transferring power to the people.
