Vahram Baghdasaryan, head of the parliamentary faction of the Republican Party of Armenia (HHK), would not say that he saw the need for the resignation of Prime Minister [Hovik Abrahamyan]. “I see a need for changes and will to implement programmes more intensively and quickly,” he said. The HHK lawmaker thinks that Karen Karapetyan will remain in the post after the elections, as well. He believes that the opposition will not be able to remove the Republicans from power through the elections because ‘they [opposition forces] are too busy with one another.’ “This type of opposition cannot think of forming a majority or achieving their goals by swearing one another,” Vahram Baghdasaryan said. Anyway, Mr. Baghdasaryan admits that many people agreed with the Sasna Dzrer group members that the Republicans should be overthrown by all means, even by force. “But, I also took into consideration to the assessment of political forces, especially those who have a significant role in politics and a critical approach,” he added. “Sasna Dzrer group does not have anything to do with the changes in government. Negative phenomena of this type simply contribute to the polarization of society,” the lawmaker stressed. Vahram Baghdasaryan is not concerned by the fact that the new prime minister [Karen Karapetyan] has not lived in Armenia in the last five years. “He is a citizen of Armenia, he has an Armenian passport and he has not been absent from the country for a long time.”
