DEFEATED ARMENIAN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE CONTINUES TO INSIST THAT
ELECTION WAS INVALID
Commenting on 17 April on the Constitutional Court's statement of the
previous day rejecting his appeal that the presidential election outcome
be annulled, Demirchian said he still does not regard Kocharian as
Armenia's legitimate president, RFE/RL's Yerevan bureau reported.
Parliament deputy Grigor Harutiunian, who served as Demirchian's
campaign manager, told Noyan Tapan that the Constitutional Court ruling
"does not promote a reduction of tensions." Harutiunian added that he
intends to ask the court to explain its rationale for proposing a
"referendum of confidence." LF
