PanARMENIAN.Net - "I'd be surprised if people chose to support Levon Ter-Petrosyan after Mar.1, 2008 events. Ter-Petrosyan announced in his recent statements that he won't settle for anything but victory," ADP Leader Aram Sargsyan told a news conference in Yerevan.



"Levon Ter-Petrosyan is preparing a fertile ground for future provocations. Should Council of Elders elections follow 2008 Presidential Elections line, Armenia won't be able to overcome the situation that tends to become increasingly dangerous," Aram Sargsyan emphasized.



Levon Ter-Petrosyan took the 2nd place in 2008 Presidential elections.

Feb. 20, 2008 Armenian opposition organized meetings to rally against election results. The rally ensued in mass disorders and confrontation with police. 10 people were killed and over 200 were injured. On Mar.1, 2008 a 20-day state of emergency was announced in Yerevan.
