“He has nothing to do with it”

Politics


Chairman of the People's Party Tigran Karapetyan has decided to form an honest field that will be contrary to the coalition. "If you have formed a dishonest field, we will create an honest one. We can't rely on you," Tigran Karapetyan told Republican Rafik Petrosyan at "Hayeli" Club.

Petrosyan tried to defend himself. "It is impossible to create an honest field by law. It's a good idea, but utopian because the society must be honest as well."

Does the HHK (Republican Party of Armenia) feel responsible for forming a "dishonest" society? In response, Rafik Petrosyan said: "Yes, it feels a sense of responsibility as the ruling party."

"Is it responsibility or guilt?" Tigran Karapetyan tried to clarify. "Responsibility," after hearing that, Tigran Karapetyan replied: "How do you feel the sense of responsibility? Do you have trouble sleeping at night?"

Rafik Petrosyan not only accused citizens of giving bribes to officials, but the presses, including Tigran Karapetyan's "ALM" Television for not receiving honest information.

Moving on to general topics, Karapetyan accused the coalition. "Your fight against corruption and everything, for that matter, is only on paper. Give me the name of one corrupt official or an oligarch that you have arrested. According to your official data, 40% of economy is shady. Where are those shady businessmen?"

The debate was getting heated at "Hayeli" Club and in order to not offend his opponent too much, Tigran Karapetyan said: "Rafik Petrosyan has nothing to do with what I'm saying. He is "Snow Maiden".
