"Power shift is a must. We don't even need sociological surveys as public moods testify to the need for power change," says Davit Hakobyan, the leader of the Armenian Marxist Party.

Davit Hakobyan dwells in Yerevan's Avan commune and is involved in the voting list of the Armenian National Congress (HAK).

"I watch the campaign and consider violence during election campaigning as an immoral phenomenon contradicting both the Constitution and the suffrage. The perpetrators will sooner or later be called to justice," said Mr. Hakobyan in view of the recent cases of violence in Avan commune.

 "A leader raising a hand on his people and trying to silence them is a faithless dog," he adds

Davit Hakobyan usually goes for walks, gets in touch with his compatriots and tries to understand public moods.

"Today people face two main problems. Firstly, we need a new economic policy which is directly connected with the power shift. Secondly, we need a new national conception to restore the geopolitical atmosphere, territorial wholeness. The wave of complaint is so huge that I think 2/3 of total votes will go to the opposition."
