“ELITES” THAT FAILED THEIR MISSION WON’T BE ALLOWED TO FLY
Vardanik’s flight and system’s landing
The police made a statement running that no criminal proceedings were
launched against former mayor of Gyumri Vardan Ghukasyan but files
are prepared based on the statement of crime submitted by the advocate.
Earlier the Armenian press had reported about launch of criminal
proceedings into the beating of a person in the courtroom by Ghukasyan
and his 30 people.
Formally, the police statement is understood. If no criminal
proceedings are launched, it is not fair that the society thinks they
are. However, the police should not have worried. The society does
not care if criminal proceedings have been launched or not.
The point is that the society is more than sure that Vardan Ghukasyan
is untouchable, and there is no difference whether criminal proceedings
will or will not be launched against him. If proceedings are launched,
Ghukasyan will be found to have acted in self-defense, like Suren
Khachatryan. Or that he tried to stop those who were fighting. One
should not doubt the fantasy of the Armenian ruling system.
If someone were able to punish Vardan Ghukasyan, he would have already
been punished, and if Vardan Ghukasyan knew he could be punished,
he would be more reserved. But he orders the reporters to leave the
courtroom, and the judge follows his orders.
After Yerevan mayoral elections, Serzh Sargsyan stated that it was
the best time to act because there are no hindrances. Indeed, there
is nothing to hinder Vardan Ghukasyan, Liska and other outstanding
representatives of the criminal-oligarchic system. Serzh Sargsyan is
unable to hinder them. There are a lot of factors, including lack of
wish and ability. No one of the ruling system, not even Serzh Sargsyan
is stronger than the system altogether.
Serzh Sargsyan’s strength is his weakness. The system has him in
the office of the president for his weakness because in such a
confused internal and external period this situation ensures that
“everyone handles their own destiny”. In other words, there is a lot of
uncertainty and anarchy and subjects do not depend on the decision of
one person but everything depends on each one’s talent and abilities.
This is an interesting situation. On the one hand, no one wants
to assume responsibility for the government because it means to be
constringed to answer serious questions of foreign partners. On the
other hand, no one wants anyone else to assume such responsibility
because in this case they could be the victim of someone’s decisions
and power.
It is not accidental that during the first few years of Serzh
Sargsyan’s term even his close oligarchs used to complain of
uncertainty and lack of rules, while now no one complains because
this situation is safer for the system than vertical power.
Moreover, this situation allows the subjects of government to be
maximum free and not bound to the civil sector, dividing it into fields
and quotas, like material and political resources, hence exercising
full control over this sector.
This situation has its advantages and dangers, just like any other
situation, perhaps. The advantage is that the ruling system is decaying
from inside. But the dangerous thing is that in the meantime the
system is deteriorating, so will the society and the state because
their immune system is weaker than the ruling system’s. So, the
criminal oligarchy can resist longer than the society and the state.
At least if the fight is exceptionally within internal resources.
Fortunately, this fight has an extended involvement and for
now, Armenia and the Armenian society are still demanded in the
international agenda. The balance is kept under the condition of
existence of external demand. But this cannot be a determining factor
because any society either manages to ensure the internal balance
of the state with the help of its own resources using also external
favorable conditions or it becomes a factor hindering international
balance. In this case, the content of the international demand changes,
and the demand to refuse the society as an entity arises.
Those, who are playing on this irregularity also need to think about
this. I mean the governmental system. If the content of demand toward
Armenia is changed, not all the members of the “elite” will be given
the opportunity to fly in both direct and figurative meanings of the
word. “Elite” that failed their state mission will never be allowed
to fly, it will be amputated. It is up to one’s luck not to be the
amputated part.
