“The internal developments in Armenia have been determined by the
Karabakh conflict since 1988,” announced Aram Sargsyan, chairman
of the Armenian Democratic party today. He doesn’t expect any new
changes from the Aliyev – Kocharyan meeting as the expectations may
be only negative. According to him, Kocharyan will have to resist the
USA pressure and in case Bush succeeds to persuade Aliyev to use the
territory of Azerbaijan as a bridgehead against Iran, the Karabakh
conflict will be settled in Azeris favour.
“This is not the case when I shall laugh at Kocharyan’s
mistakes. Generally I am not delighted by the President’s mistakes,”
noted Aram Sargsyan. By the way, he also mentioned that though people
got tired of the Karabakh residents the Armenian society will support
the same Karabakh conflict once more and will demand the resignation
of the authorities in case the conflict is settled not in favour
of Armenians.
NA deputy Aram Sargsyan referred to the recent internal developments
and announced that they testify to the fact that the political,
economic and social crisis in the country is more profound than it
once seemed.
Aram Sargsyan respects the OYP decision to quit the Coalition but he
mentioned with regret that Arthur Baghdasaryan’s resignation and his
debate with the National Unity didn’t let the Parliament know about
“NA Speaker’s scandals with Robert Kocharyan which Arthur Baghdasaryan
announced himself.” Aram Sargsyan also noted that other representatives
of the Coalition didn’t comment on the OYP resignation.
According to Aram Sargsyan we shall face a severe phase of political
developments. The further political developments will be more
interesting starting from the September of 2007 when the parties will
convene sessions, party alliances will become known, and we shall
know which party cooperates with which one. Aram Sargsyan would
like parties to be united on ideological bases; and to be divided
into right and left alliances, but, “During the elections we shall
have business with such people who look down on others’ ideas and
suggestions who enter the political sphere to preserve their property,
thus the system won’t be changed.”
“The main fault of this system is that business in not independent in
it,” said Aram Sargsyan recalling Andranik Margaryan’s announcement
that “businessman may not countervail the authorities.” In Sargsyan’s
words though people are disappointed their attitude is the same. There
is a vast mass of people who are faithful to their principles, aren’t
sold and will vote guided by their heart remorse.
Aram Sargsyan claims that many people were eager to see “Justice”
bloc dissolved but their expectations blew up as the members of the
bloc are people who united on the ideological basis and who strive
to establish constitutional order in the country. And the bloc will
exist until it fulfills its objective.
NA new Speaker’s election has no political significance in his
words. “Armenia is a developing country. The Coalition doesn’t exist,
it has turned into a trade, and no political matters are solved in it,”
claims Sargsyan.
