ARE THERE NATIONAL TRAITORS IN ARMENIA?
Support A1+!Will the Armenian leadership regulate the Karabakh conflict to the detriment of Armenia? In reply to A1+’s question, Zharangutiun (Heritage) Party Secretary Stepan Safarian said: “I see no national traitors in Armenia. I can only blame the authorities for illiterate and unjustified steps. And if the steps are directed against Armenia I think we should be blamed for their consequences.”
Stepan Safarian thinks the Karabakh issue is in a stagnant rather than in a critical state.
With regard to the PACE assessment to Armenia’s political domain Stepan Safarian said, “The PACE will surely give a rough assessment. Even if Serzh Sargsyan grants amnesty to the prisoners the PACE will not change its opinion. Besides, let me remind you that many political prisoners said they need no amnesty as they plead not guilty of any crime.”
Generally, the Zharangutiun Secretary is discontent with the activity of the NA ad hoc Committee looking into the March 1 events. “Levon Ter-Petrossian accuses Kocharian of the March 1 unrest and says Kocharian gave the order to fire at people. In his turn, Kocharian blames Ter-Petrossian for his calls for mass disorder and attempts of power overthrow. Neither Kocharian nor Ter-Petrossian has been invited to an examination,” he added.
