WHOEVER IS ARMENIA’S PRESIDENT, HE WOULD MAKE SUCH A DECISION – ARMEN RUSTAMYAN
15:40 * 05.12.14
Armen Rustamyan, the head of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation
Dashnaktsutyun (ARF-D) parliamentary group, told a press briefing on
Friday that the ARF-D is not a primitive opposition force to act in
opposition of the authorities.
He made the statement in response to reporters’ question as to
whether the opposition ARF-D has lately agreed with President Serzh
Sargsyan’s policy, particularly his position on Armenia’s accession
to the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU).
“Whoever is Armenia’s president, he would make such a decision,”
Mr Rustamyan said.
The ARF-D has most of all seen geopolitical ups and downs and decided
in favor of security.
As to a remark that security is a motive for supporters of Armenia’s
accession to the EEU, Mr Rustamyan said:
“The facts are obvious. Are we giving a justification by saying that
Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh are blockaded and in a state of war or
are we stating a fact?”
