NOVEMBER TRIAL FOR KOCHARIAN AND ALIYEV

Armenian President Needs 800.000 Votes, His Azeri Counterpart –
A Humble Parliament
Even the worst constitution of the world can be voted for if
authorities of a country enjoy popularity. A common voter will never
read the package of constitutional amendments if he knows that its
authors are Robert Kocharian and his coalition. A common voter will
not simply take part in the referendum in late November for several
reasons. Firstly, the constitution is largely designed not for him,
as it is the common citizens whose rights are violated every now
and then. Secondly, elections in Armenia (constitutional referendum
being an election) in last 10 years were rigged, and the citizens of
Armenia to be involved in another fraud. Thirdly, the opposition (part
of which enjoys people’s favor for openly condemning the authorities)
will launch active campaign against the constitutional referendum.
The authorities are hardly to have serious problems with
the opposition: all TV channels are somehow supervised by the
president’s administration and some are even regulated directly from
26 Baghramian Str (president’s residence). The ratings of Armenian TV
channels are not higher than the ratings of Armen Ashotian, Galust
Sahakian or Armenian Revolutionary Federation. Armenian citizens
negatively responded to young extremist Ashotian’s speech at the
parliament. Patriotic exhortations (such as “no” to referendum will
endanger Karabakh or will throw democratic processes of Armenia back)
of Vahan Hovhannisian, Tigran Torosian or Artur Baghdasarian will
yield no result. Such statements would have been fair and acceptable
if Hovhannisian had condemned the rigged presidential elections
of 2003 and Baghdasarian and Torosian had done so in regard to the
parliamentary elections of the same year and the April 13 violence.
The November referendum can turn into a trial for the Armenian
authorities. European structures and the US welcome the package of
constitutional amendments but meanwhile they warn that the November
referendum should be free, just and transparent. The authorities will
have to make all-out efforts to secure 800.000 “yes” votes for the
referendum in current situation.
Undoubtedly, if the voters say “yes” to the constitutional referendum
in free and just vote then it will considerably raise Armenia’s image
in the eyes of the world community.
The parliamentary elections in Azerbaijan will precede referendum
in Armenia. The international community tends to place democratic
achievements of Armenia and Azerbaijan on the same scales despite
the fact that Armenia is a step ahead of its neighbor.
Constitutional referendum may well be a relief against the background
of Azeri elections. Besides, it’s clear as a day that President
Aliyev’s situation is more painful. The US and Europe keep on pressing
on Baku. Every week brings new American and European representatives
to Azerbaijan.
Aliyev junior is facing a difficult choice this time. He has
to tackle European pressure from on one hand and form a humble
parliament composed of Heydar Aliyev’s Yeni Azerbaijan Party and his
dynasty members on the other. Under the US pressure, Ilham Aliyev was
compelled to enlist former parliament speaker Rasul Guliyev currently
sheltered in USA. Former president of Azerbaijan, Ayaz Muthalibov,
was also registered as candidate on September 5.
The Azeri opposition is encouraged by the US pressure on
Aliyev. Following Ukraine’s example, orange tents tailored to make up
“small towns” in front of the Central Electoral Committee and square
of Baku have been ordered.

OUTSIDE VIEW: RUSSIA’S FUTURE
By Norman Levine
UPI, United Press International
September 6, 2005 Tuesday 11:25 AM EST
ST. PETERSBURG, Russia, Aug. 28
Today people over 65 in Russia are a lost generation, the old
communist welfare state is gone, and besides living in poverty they
are discredited as political mishaps from a bygone era.
World historical revolutions leave the effected country psychologically
traumatized. The sudden lose of customary politico-social environments
creates a state of psycho-social disorientation.
Communism was installed in Russia by the Leninist Revolution of
1917, and Leninism was extinguished by the Yeltsin Revolution of
1991. The Soviet Union lasted for 74 years, a span of time in which
four generations lived their lives, in which the structures of a
communist society were incorporated by individuals as behavioral norms.
Fourteen years now separates the Yeltsin Revolution from contemporary
Russia, but the population is still disquieted. A gap between pre-and
post Yeltsin generations is easily discernible, and the confusion
between the politico-social rules of communism, and the unexpectedly
triumphant demands of capitalism leapt from the lips of Russians
to whom I talked during my recent visit to Russia. Politically and
psychologically, the aftershocks of the revolution of 1991 reverberates
throughout Russian society.
“Fourteen years ago we were the second-greatest superpower in
the world,” Dr. Elizaveta Isaev, Professor of Russian Politics,
said to me. “Today we fear the expansion of NATO to the east, the
Islamic Revolution on our Southern Flank, and the encirclement by the
United States with its military bases in Uzbekistan, and Krygystan,
or Central Asia.
“Fourteen years ago seniors enjoyed a social safety net that gave them
dignity in later life,” Isaev said. “Today people over 65 are a lost
generation, the old communist welfare state is gone, and besides living
in poverty the are discredited as political mishaps from a bygone era.”
>>From the international perspective, the current Russian malaise
encompasses three geographic pivots: On its Western border Russia
fears European Union and NATO expansion eastward, on its Southern
Flank Russia worries about Islamic Fundamentalist secession, and
on its Eastern border it is concerned about U.S. encirclement from
Central Asian bases.
The Yeltsin Revolution not only denuded Russia of all territorial
gains made by Bolshevism, but also by Czarism, or a Double Imperial
Extinction.
On its Western Pivot the collapse of the Soviet Union extinguished
the Bolshevik empire in Eastern Europe. The fall of the Soviet Union
amounted to the cancellation of the Yalta Agreement, and Red soldiers
evacuated Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Rumania, and Bulgaria.
But the Double Imperial Extinction also entailed the simultaneous
eradication of Czarist territorial acquisitions. The Baltic States,
Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia gained their freedom from Moscow
in 1991, and the Baltic expansion of 1791 of Peter the Great was
concurrently annulled.
Tsarina Catherine the Great suffered the same affront. This empress
absorbed the Ukraine and Crimea from the Turks in 1783, and by
participating in the three Partitions of Poland moved Czarist Russia’s
Western borders to Warsaw.
However, the collapse of the Soviet Union also involved the synchronic
loss of Catherine’s conquests. Although Russia retained the Crimea,
the Ukraine slowly gained its independence from Catherine’s initial
18th century grasp.
This Double Imperial Extinction meant that on its Western Pivot
post-1991 Russia retreated to the boundaries of 17th century Russia.
Approximately 300 years of territorial annexations were reversed.
“This was Gorbachev’s great failure,” Isaev said. “He did not negotiate
a Second Yalta. When he decided to pull Red troops out of Eastern
Europe he should have bargained for a Second Yalta with the West
setting hard limits to the advance of NATO and the EU into Eastern
Europe. Without a Second Yalta Russia was forced to accept a Second
Treaty of Brest-Litovsk.”
The Double Imperial Extinction is also manifested on the Southern Flank
of Russia. The First Imperial Enlargement in the Caucasus and Central
Asia was carried out by the czars. In the 1880’s in the Caucasus the
czars had seized Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan from the suddenly
collapsing Persian Empire, and in Central Asia in the same decade
the czars took control of these mostly tribal territories. Power
vacuums in the Caucasus and Central Asia opened the way to Tzarist
penetration into the Islamic world.
After the Leninist Revolution the Communists’ Imperial Enlargement
simply absorbed the Czarist Imperial Enlargement in the Caucasus and
Central Asia. Like a carpet the Bolsheviks took the conquests of the
czars and swept them under the Communist rug, which was called the
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
Imitating the events in Eastern Europe, the Yeltsin Revolution
witnessed the erasure of the Communist Imperial Enlargement, which
was simultaneously the evaporation of the Czarist Imperial Enlargement
in the Caucasus and Central Asia.
The dismemberment of the Soviet Union in December 1991 led to the
Balkanization of the Caucasus. Georgia, Armenia, and Azerbaijan,
all non-Slavic peoples, followed the Slavic Ukraine into declaring
their independence.

UKRAINIAN PRIME MINISTER IS NOT JEWISH, PAPER FINDS
Segodnya, Kiev
1 Sep 05
Transport Minister Yevhen Chervonenko has issued a statement saying
Prime Minister Yuliya Tymoshenko is Jewish and should be more concerned
about the welfare of Jews in Ukraine. A newspaper has found, however,
that Tymoshenko is not at all likely to be Jewish, especially in
light of her own observations on her genealogy. The following is the
text of the article by Yevhen Chalenko and Yevhen Ikhelson, entitled
“The Jewish scandal in the government”, published in the Ukrainian
newspaper Segodnya on 1 September:
It is clear that the opposition within our government, where
the president [Viktor Yushchenko] sent “unique boys and girls”,
has got so far that they have pulled that lethal card out of their
sleeves – the Jewish card. And it was Minister of Transportation
and Communications Yevhen Chervonenko who pulled it out – an ethnic
Jew himself. The minister’s press service related a statement by Mr
Chervonenko which was surprising in all respects – in it he judges
Prime Minister Yuliya Tymoshenko for her lack of an official, defined
position on the recent beating of Jewish students in Kiev. The most
interesting thing is how he judges her! We quote: “The minister (that
is, Chervonenko – author), as a member of the government is very
surprised that such a reaction (meaning one like the president had –
author) did not come from the government and the prime minister of
Ukraine. All the more since Yuliya Tymoshenko’s mother is Jewish and
her father is an Armenian. It was exactly the Jews and the Armenians
who have experienced the biggest genocides.”
It is not clear why Chervonenko decided to “stamp” his boss and tell
the entire country about her Jewish roots. No explanations were given
in the press service of the Transport Ministry, where they only
said the minister was on vacation. However, we remind our readers
that relations between Tymoshenko and Chervonenko have never been
easy. Public spats have not been uncommon. As far as the “Jewish
question” then of course from the point of view of the national
interests of the country, it does not matter what ethnic group the
prime minister belongs to – what is important is that he does his
work well. However, since the minister has touched on the issue,
we decide to get to the bottom of it.
The magazine Korrespondent once published a questionnaire filled out
by Yuliya Tymoshenko herself back in Soviet times and in which she
wrote that her father (Volodymyr Abramovych Grigyan) was Latvian and
she herself was Ukrainian. The magazine also published the surname,
name and patronymic of her mother – Lyudmyla Mykolayivna Nelepova
(Telehyna after marriage). In December 2004, answering a question
from an Azerbaijani journalist in Kiev, Tymoshenko said the following:
“My father’s side is Latvian for 10 generations and on my mother’s side
everyone is Ukrainian,” pointing out that she had no ties to Armenians.
At the same time, as Segodnya was told by one of the leaders of the
Armenian Union in Ukraine [AUU], our prime minister’s maiden name comes
from the name Grigoriy and is very widespread in Armenia. He also told
Segodnya that there is a rumour in Yerevan [the capital of Armenia]
that Tymoshenko allegedly studied a short time in that city in school
No 147. They say her father brought her there. The AUU representative
also told Segodnya that as far as he knew, the prime minister had
never shown any interest in the Armenian Diaspora in Ukraine.
We also decided to find out whether Yuliya Tymoshenko takes part in
the life of the Latvian Diaspora, and called the secretary of the
Latvian embassy, Viktoria Karamane. She answered Segodnya by saying
she did not have the right to comment. She also added that there was
no official organization in Ukraine that united people from Latvia.
And what about the Jews? Eduard Dolynskyy, the acting director of
the United Jewish Community in Ukraine in answering a question from
Segodnya on Jewish roots, laughed saying that he had never heard of
“that”. The Rabbi of the central synagogue in Kiev, Moshe Asman, told
Segodnya that he had no information on the Jewish heritage of Yuliya
Tymoshenko or her participation in the life of the Jewish community
in either Kiev or Dnipropetrovsk [where she comes from].
That is, it is not clear where Yevhen Chervonenko saw Jewish blood in
Ms Tymoshenko’s past, although as a fellow Dnipropetrovsk native he
could know more about her. We remind our readers that in the Jewish
tradition a child is considered a Jew if his mother is Jewish.

RUPEL: OSCE CANNOT SUPPORT ANY OF THE CONFLICT PARTIES
Yerkir
06.09.2005 13:18
YEREVAN (YERKIR) – Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
(OSCE) cannot support any of the parties to the Nagorno Karabakh
conflict and is trying to reach a settlement in the existing format
of negotiations, the OSCE Chairman-in-office told a news conference
on September 5, news agency Noyan Tapan reported.
Emerging from his meeting with Nagorno Karabakh Republic President
Arkady Ghukasian, Dimitri Rupel did not rule out the possibility
of settling the conflict by the yearend provided there is a great
will. He, however, indicated that the parliamentary election due in
Azerbaijan this November could pose an obstacle.
In his turn, NKR President Ghukasian said it was unrealistic to
expect a settlement by the end of this year. No progress is seen
at this point, he indicated, adding that “there are no negotiations
within the Minsk Group, there are simply meetings.” He also mentioned
that it would be hard to settle the conflict without Nagorno Karabakh
participating in the process.

In a dishonest environment all assessments of the past will be dismissed as 20/20 vision, of the future as alarmist, and of the present as based on misinformation. Which simply means, to be pro-status quo or pro-establishment is to be infallible, and to be anti-status-quo or anti-establishment means being consistently wrong.
*
During the Ottoman phase of our existence, those who predicted the massacres were dismissed as alarmist, and during the Soviet era those who said Stalin was a ruthless tyrant were labeled as unpatriotic. Which means, it would be far more accurate to say that to be pro-establishment is to be consistently wrong, perhaps because our men at the top and their hirelings happen to be moral morons, political nonentities, and intellectual midgets — that is to say, swine.

THERE IS OPPORTUNITY FOR SETTLING KARABAKH CONFLICT: OSCE CHAIRMAN-IN-OFFICE
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 6. ARMINFO. There is an opportunity for settling
the Karabakh conflict, OSCE Chairman-in-Office Dimitrij Rupel said
Monday commenting on his meeting with President of Nagorno Karabakh
Republic Arkady Ghoukassyan.
He said that he and Ghoukassyan exchanged opinions on the present
situation in the peace process. Rupel told Ghoukassyan about his visit
to Azerbaijan. He pleaded cooperation between the conflicting parties
and noted that OSCE does not support either of the nations but tries
to attain together with them some mutually acceptable resolution.
Rupel said that there is no much time for resolution and now there
is an opportunity for that. He said that he had brought a clear
message of Azeri President Ilham Aliev for Armenian President
Robert Kocharyan. Rupel hopes that both the presidents and the FMs
will continue their talks and that a constructive dialogue will be
established in the region.
Rupel said that in the Karabakh peace process the question is
about reconciling two principles – territorial integrity and
self-determination right. As to attaining resolution as early as this
year this would not be bad but the Nov 2005 parliamentary elections in
Azerbaijan are not a very good component for the negotiating process.
Asked by ARMINFO when one can expect the involvement of Karabakh as a
full party to the peace talks Rupel said that there already is a quite
expansive negotiating format – OSCE Minsk Group, Armenian and Azeri
presidents and FMs. But Rupel is ready to negotiate with anybody to
facilitate the resolution.

ARMENIA AND LATVIA SIGNED TREATY ON MILITARY COOPERATION.
Pan Armenian News

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ September 6 Latvia and Armenia concluded a treaty
on military cooperation. The document was signed in Riga by Defense
Ministers Einars Repse and Serge Sargsyan. To remind, Latvia has
expressed readiness to contribute to the Armenian defense sector
including exchange of experience in peacekeeping operations and to
assist in military training. Upon completion of the signing ceremony
the Armenian Defense Minister commented on Armenia’s plans as regards
NATO. “We consider that the cooperation with NATO is a constituent of
the national security. However joining NATO is not on our foreign line
agenda”, he noted. As for the agreement signed Serge Sargsyan said,
“The experience of bringing the Armed Forces to the NATO standards is
interesting for us. Without aiming to join the Alliance we take part
in the joint measures and think that our Armed Forces will benefit
from it. During the secret negotiations Serge Sargsyan familiarized
his Latvian counterpart in the process of defense reform in Armenia
noting that over insufficient financing Armenian defense cannot reach
the EU and NATO standards, however Armenia will strive for it in
future. In his words, Armenia intends to fully reorganize its Armed
Forces till 2015 that is why the republic is particularly interested
in cooperation with Latvia, a country with similar experience. The
Armenian Minister also showed interest in Latvia’s experience in
international operations and civic defense and invited his counterpart
to Armenia, reported by IA Regnum.

TURKEY TO BE OFFERED TO SOLVE PROBLEM OF NORMALIZING ITS
RELATIONS WITH NEIGHBORS DURING FORTHCOMING NEGOTIATIONS ON ITS
ACCESSION TO EU: OSCE ACTING CHAIRMAN
YEREVAN, SEPTEMBER 6. ARMINFO. Turkey will be offered to solve the
problem of establishing relations with neighbors, including with
Armenia, during the forthcoming negotiations on its accession to
the European Union. It will make real Armenia’s cooperation with
Azerbaijan, stated the OSCE acting chairman, Slovenia’s Foreign
Minister Dimitrij Rupel during today’s negotiations with Armenia’s
Prime Minister Andranik Margaryan.
As ARMINFO was informed in the governmental press-service, Rupel
supported a viewpoint (based on international experience) according
to which both the establishment of trade and economic relations
with conflict’s parties and the formation of confidence atmosphere
considerably contribute to strengthening of political relations. In
his opinion, Nagorno-Karabakh conflict settlement has become more
realizable within the framework of his present visit’s meetings in
Baku and Yerevan, despite the fact that there are some difficulties
in connection with the forthcoming parliamentary elections in
Azerbaijan. Rupel noted that he is informed with the process of
democratic reforms in Armenia. He estimated positively the process
of constitutional reforms meaning that Armenia tries to make its
legislative structures more corresponding to European standards.
