WHY TO COMBAT AGAINST THE AUTHORITIES ONLY VIA POWER AND WEAPON?

Politics

Why do Armenians assume that they can combat against the acting authorities only via power and weapon? The Anti-Criminal Movement has decided to initiate a large-scale discussion in this view to make people aware of certain things.

“How will you count for the wide-spread opinion that no problems can be solved without weapon in Armenia? Today everybody thinks so, but only two people dared to announce it loudly”, Aram Karapetyan, leader of “New Times” Party started his speech today.

Mr. Karapetyan addressed his words to the journalists as well. “If Nairi Hounanyan came to an agreement with all the parties, occupied the NA building and didn’t realize the carnage of October 27, could you predict in what way we could struggle against the authorities formed by Hounanyan. In case there weren’t elections in Armenia, the authorities would make arrangements on all issues, how could we struggle against them? Didn’t Fidel Castro come to power via weapon? There were many revolutions in Venezuela, weren’t there? I can bring numerous other illustrations. Whereas, Robert Kocharyan sits on his post and explains to us whether revolutions can be colourful or not. If Robert Kocharyan thinks that he can prevent coup d’etat in Armenia via arrests or threats, he is awfully mistaken.”

Aram Karapetyan is indignant at Robert Kocharyan’s last speech. “How can the head of a country say that elections will be fabricated? Instead of saying they will do their best to prevent election frauds, Mr. Kocharyan urges the Election Commission members not to be enticed by bribes”.

Mr. Karapetyan reminded Robert Kocharyan that under the RA Criminal Code all people offering bribes as well as accepting them will be punished. “The head of the country informs people which parties will be in the National Assembly. He affirms the list of majoritarian system deputies. Who has granted him such a right?”

Then Mr. Karapetyan started to speak of Gorik Hakobyan, head of National Security Service. “Mr. Hakobyan must come to know that enemies can be both inside the country and beyond its boundaries whereas he looks for his enemies in Armenia.”

Today, the leader of “New Times” assured that they are going to inform the international community about the current events in Armenia. “We shall inform all the Senators, members of Russian Duma, Bundestag, representatives of the French Parliament. Today, RA authorities are ready to do everything possible for their reproduction.”
