Social Democratic Hnchakyan Party suggests 10 steps for the
development of Armenia. It was introduced today at the SDHP “RA
development road map” discussion.

“RA Foreign policy is like a child’s behavior, who doesn’t understand
the explanation of surrounding objects and phenomena,”- said SDHP city
council member, azatamartik Vazgen Sislyan. He announced that Armenian
Foreign Ministry always responds to the announcements addressed to
Armenia with delay citing OSCE Minsk Group US Co-president James
Warlick’s announcement.

According to him, Armenia must take decisions following its interests,
“Artsakh return to negotiation process is important. Artsakh has its
right for independence and if it isn’t accepted, the negotiations must
be stopped.”

Concerning Armenian-Turkish relations, Sislyan stressed that Armenia
must be demanding, “Armenian-Turkish protocols must be withdrawn from
the agenda and the demand for clear relations with Ankara must be put
forward- recognition of Armenian Genocide and compensation.”

SDHP chairman Narek Galstyan is for parliamentarian system, “The
country must become a parliamentarian republic. Only it will establish
relatively stable political system.” He added that the abolition of
oligarchy is an urgent problem for Armenia, but didn’t mention any
step for its abolition.

“The deepening of relations with Moscow is beneficial for Armenia,-
thinks Narek Galstyan, – These relations must be decent. Military
development direction is Russia, but the party refuses frightened or
vassal relations.”

SDHP chairman considers that membership in the Customs Union is also
beneficial for Armenia in the economic field, “It will give 150
millions market, from which we are deprived now.”

To the question, what Armenia will export into 150 millions market,
SDHP chairman Narek Galstyan had difficulty to answer, “In any case, I
haven’t put a cross on our economy.”

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
