Authorities’ violent behavior brings to adverse effect - Aram Manukyan.

The opposition bloc Armenian National Congress (ANC) already has been to five regions, within the framework of the campaigning for the forthcoming parliamentary elections, and, in general, the electoral campaign is going well, despite those crude methods which the authorities are using against the ANC. Board Chairman Aram Manukyan of the Armenian National Movement Party—which is a part of the ANC—stated this during a press conference on Thursday.

Manukyan also noted that the people were not being allowed to attend the ANC’s public meetings, the electricity was being cut off, and the people were being recorded on cameras to instill fear.

He added, however, that the reaction to such steps is greater than their effect.
