Whose ‘man’ is Serzh Sargsyan?
Leader of the New Times Party (NZhK), Aram Karapetyan, agrees with Russian Premier Vladimir Putin that U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton hurried to give a tough response to the December 4 preliminary elections in Russia.
"None of the observation missions had said anything when the U.S. Department of State said that the elections were marred by fraud," said the NZhK leader.
"Why didn't they respond similarly after the 2008 election in Armenia that was followed by the March 1 slaughter?" he said.
Aram Karapetyan stresses that since 2008 the West has been dully supporting Serzh Sargsyan who is considered "The Man of Russia."
There can be two options: either Serzh Sargsyan is not "The Man of Russia," or he is on good terms with pro-Western forces," Karapetyan said naming geopolitical motives behind it.
