Vazgen Manukian Commends Media, Attacks Ter-Petrossian

ArmenPress reports that opposition presidential candidate Vazgen Manukian has commended the local media for its coverage of the pre-election campaign ahead of next month’s presidential election in Armenia.

However, the veteran politician does have some concerns and is specifically unhappy with the the way in which Levon Ter-Petrossian’s campaign team attacks anyone not supporting the former leader.

Manukian, speaking to journalists, praised it for a set of ‘positive’ changes. […]

“What I can not accept in this struggle is when a candidate claims that all others who are not with him are government puppets,’ he said.

Manukian also argued that unlike the 2003 election this time there are no frontrunners among opposition candidates.
