PanARMENIAN.Net – Ex-foreign minister Vartan Oskanian’s fate depends
on further actions of the Armenian people, according to a political
expert.

“Okanian might even be executed, should Armenia’s society remain
passive,” Yervand Bozoyan told a news conference in Yerevan.

“Persecution of Oskanian may boost the latter’s rating, making him
a serious contender at presidential elections,” the expert said.

“The authorities are aware that major external pressure will be exerted
in Oskanian case, so accusations against the ruling Republican Party
of Armenia (RPA) leadership may follow,” he said.

In conclusion, Bozoyan urged to follow the suit of Georgia, where
recent parliamentary polls proved the country’s adherence to democratic
values.
