Communists intend to return to parliament
The Communist Party of Armenia is confident of its success in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
"The Communist Party is the only genuine opposition force," second secretary of CPA Tachat Sargsyan said on Wednesday.
Sargsyan stressed that communism was the Golden Age in the history of Armenia and called on communists to unite in order to restore the Communist orders in the country.
Look at the United States of America. This powerful country has kneeled down before the People's Republic of China which has taken the path of socialism. I am sure that our generation sees it. We stand on fertile soil and have every possibility to return to the National Assembly," he said. "We do not seek to change power. We aim to make systematic changes. Look! What is going on in Armenia today? During our administration everybody had a job, every year hundreds of thousands of children spent their holidays in camps. Today children spend their days in the street. We have a lot to do."
The CPA is going to republish its newspaper.
Sargsyan was warmly welcomed by his colleagues who said it is time communists held mass events.
"If you make a similar speech at Liberty Square, you will rally more people that the Armenian National Congress does," said Albert Movsesyan.
