Vagharshapat community council elections will be held on November 16. Political forces are actively preparing for them. Yesterday we received various reports that the ruling power started the campaign with violations.
The campaign of the "Hayrenik" party also started yesterday. The mayoral candidate of the party is Khachik Manukyan, who started the campaign with a visit to Yerablur.
Manukyan has no doubt that the government will use administrative resources in these elections. "I would like them not to use the resources of evil, not to make our people finally disappointed with all those who have assumed the power in the country today.
Although there is no government, they serve the interests of foreigners." In case of being elected, what will be the priority issues for Manukyan? "We should be able to solve the social problems facing people as much as possible. We have many problems in rural communities, from lack of agriculturists and veterinarians to consultants who will be able to make such a business plan so that the farmer does not have financial losses. We must support the Armenians of Artsakh, who are facing serious problems.
Not excluding our return to Artsakh, they should feel that they are in their own land." Artur Vanetsyan, chairman of Hayrenik party, highly appreciates the chances of their candidate. He emphasizes the victory, but notes that his goal in the last five-six years has been one: to deprive the CP of power. "We should do it in Vagharshapat as well.
On November 16, we will document that CP failed to take power in Vagharshapat. We are ready to cooperate with any opposition force, but we will do everything to get maximum votes. I am confident in our team. With these elections, Merarshapatsi must prove that the political force that started a campaign against the Church cannot get even one vote in the spiritual capital of all Armenia," Vanetsyan said.
He emphasized that no matter how much the government tries to use administrative resources, they are sure that they will not achieve any results. "The CP party in Vagharshapat, I would say in the entire territory of Armenia, has such a low rating that even in the case of using administrative resources, it will not be able to register a victory.
They can do one thing: start the law enforcement system, start illegal arrests, which we are witnessing recently. But we are firm, confident in our victory."
