A political war has started in Armenia

14 February 2015 – 12:15pm

Armenian media report that Armenian citizens in the near future will
witness “sleaze, financial and criminal prosecution… A rat race, and
many other phenomena that have no connection with politics, but will
accompany further political events,” referring to a campaign now being
initiated by President Serzh Sargsyan against the leader of the
Prosperous Armenia party, Gagik Tsarukyan.

Recall that Sargsyan described Tsarukyan as “evil in the political
sphere of Armenia, which it was time to eradicate,” remembering missed
sessions of Parliament, and shadow economic activity, and rumors of
“creating professional criminal mechanisms.”

In response, Gagik Tsarukyan has spoken about the error of the
authorities and Sargsyan himself both in foreign and in domestic
politics, blaming them for the severe socio-economic situation in the
country.

Simultaneously, Tsarukyan claimed that he would not fight Sargsyan
alone, and that evening he held talks with the leader of the Armenian
National Congress, Levon Ter-Petrosyan, in the presence of deputies
from PAP Naira Zohrabyan, Vartan Oskanyan, Stepan Margaryan and
members of the ANC Aram Manukyan and Levon Zurabyan.
In the near future he intends to meet with the leadership of the Heritage party.

Experts immediately drew attention to the fact that, immediately after
the speech by Sargsyan, ex-president Robert Kocharyan urgently
returned to Yerevan from Kiev.

Official representatives of Kocharian rejected this connection, but
they do not exclude the possibility that the second president of the
republic will soon make a statement regarding the attack by Sargsyan
on Tsarukyan.

“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
