Forecast: As a result of elections none of the forces will be able to  form a government alone 

ArmInfo.Listening to the content of the election campaign, both the government and its main opponents: threats, curses and shouts, it becomes frankly uncomfortable in front  of our entire society, in particular, the young generation, students,  to whom we - our generation - should serve as an example. The deputy  chairman of the <Armenian National Congress> party Aram Manukyan  expressed a similar opinion to ArmInfo.

"In this light, in contrast to all these hammers and other  frightening household items that our competitors are brandishing, we  are putting up a word. A word based on political wisdom and political  experience.  Years of experience. You know, a word is also a rather  good weapon. Especially when it appeals not to instincts, but to  reason and logic. Especially when we try to prevent the destruction  of the Armenian statehood using words, "he stressed.

In this light, the politician described the upcoming elections as a  very difficult and important political process through which it will  be possible to save the state and the country. Manukyan emphasized  that these values are at stake in the elections. He explains the  latter both by the prospect of the "former regime" coming to power  and by the preservation of the current administration. "We must all  understand that all these people will run the country in  approximately the same way as they are conducting their election  campaign in front of our eyes," he said.

A politician today, more than ever, sees the need for articulate,  logically grounded and calculated speech.  Manukyan is convinced that  the word will be the key to ANC's success in the upcoming elections,  since a significant part of the Armenian electorate, sharing the  concerns he mentioned above, is ready to listen to a restrained,  rational and verified speech in exchange for obscenities, shouts and  threats. And the number of such people, gradually leaning from apathy  to rationalism, according to his personal observations, is constantly  growing.

"The number of views of the speeches of the first President Levon  Ter-Petrosyan is growing exponentially.  And I think that this will  inevitably affect our rating and prospects in the elections. I think  that following the elections, no force will be able to form a  government alone. It will not even be possible to create a coalition.  "And here, if our forecasts come true, our proposal will become  actual, the essence of which is to elect a person as prime minister  who will represent everyone without representing anyone in  particular. I mean non-party executive, who will be able to hold  negotiations and develop the country without looking back at anyone,  "he stressed.

All this, according to Manukyan, will extinguish the internal  political fire, calm passions and bring the situation in the country  to an internal political balance. This will increase the chances of  successful negotiations on resolving the country's main foreign  policy problems at this stage. And in a year or two, in a  fundamentally new situation, in a country already endowed with a  certain immunity, it will be possible to hold new elections with  appropriate results and the possibility of forming a new legitimate  government, "the politician summed up.
