Heritage Party Campaigns in Ararat: "Do you want to remain in the past?"

During a campaign stump through Ararat Marz, Heritage Party leader Raffi Hovannisian asked residents, “What do you want; to remain in the past or to go forward to the future?”

Hovannisian was accompanied by other party reps – Zarouhie Postanjyan, Aleksander Arzoumanyan, Pevan Poghosyan and Hovhannes Ghazaryan.

The united Heritage/Free Democrats ticket candidates swept through the communities of Khor Virap, Artashat, Verin Artashat, Aygezard, Baghramyan and Masis.

Hovannisian told sidents that the ruling government coalition’s policies had failed regarding the economy, the legal and social systems and manufacturing. He said that this had led to a wide-scale exodus of people from Armenia that could result in an emptying of the country if the coalition was successful in its bid to stay in power.

Former Foreign Minister Aleksander Arzoumanyan, now a member of the Free Democrats, exhorted residents not to fear the authorities and remember “that they are our servants”.

“We have vanquished our external enemy and realized the dream of our forefathers, the creation of an independent Armenia. We elect our authorities but we fear them. If they do not meet with our approval we must go to their offices and say, brothers, you are not doing your jobs. We must tell them to leave and elect new ones.”

Heritage Party MP Zarouhie Postanjyan told the crowds that, “We will not leave you in the past twenty years of deprivation, emigration and non-productivity.”
