The only way to overcome the present political crisis is the extraordinary presidential elections and not parliamentarian elections. “The Republic of Armenia has highly centralized government headed by the President, so I think that the centralized government and then the parliament must be changed by the extraordinary elections,”- says NA “Heritage” party member Zaruhi Postanjyan. Zaruhi Postanjyan notes many reasons for the resignation of Serzh Sargsyan- migration, poverty of 1 million people, but the one seems her very serious- Serzh Sargsyan had negotiated with Europeans for four years for joining Euroassociation and joined the Customs Union in a night: “Just that way- he lied.” HHK party Head Vahram Baghdasaryan considers it meaningless to speak about the ways of overcoming the political crisis: there is no political crisis in our country, “So what, if some protesters march the streets and raise their complaints, so they must announce that there is a political crisis?” Vahram Baghdasaryan says that there is no need for extraordinary elections, if the oppositions has problems to formulate, which it isn’t able to do in this parliament, let it wait for the next elections, “There will be new political divisions and then we will see whether the complaints of those people have been right.” HHK party member Hovhannes Sahakyan even suggests mechanisms how the opposition can come to the power both in the parliament and the presidential apparatus, “They can win the NA elections after constitutional reforms with that troika or four, win globally at the NA elections and form both the government and president.” Mr. Sahakyan also doesn’t see any reason for extraordinary elections. And the fact, that Freedom Square is full again doesn’t mean anything, “Yes, they demand government change. If the opposition doesn’t demand government change, it won’t be opposition, it will be government. And second, for what do you demand government change?” Mr. Sahakyan followed the last rallies of the Troika and wants to understand when they demanded government change, “One of the three spoke about completely different topic, the second spoke about sit-down strike: but they immediately restrained, closed that issue, the third came and spoke about his ideas or that “we are with people, we are happy”.
