Who will dare to speak out against Serzh Sargsyan?
Chairman of the Fatherland and Honor Party is starting a decisive struggle against corruption.
"Due to corruption, an ordinary person in Armenia does not feel protected by law, emigration is escalating, and the budget is unable to address basic social problems," says Garnik Margaryan.
As an example, Garnik Margaryan cited the high-profile murders in Armenia which have not been disclosed to this date. "Starting from the murder in Paplovok when the so-called second president broke the back of our people," he said.
The seven-member anti-corruption council of the party will not fight against people, but against phenomena. The council has already elaborated an anti-corruption program based on the practice of European country. The council also includes the former political prisoner Vardan Malkhasyan, who says their struggle needs devotees.
"They are plundering our mineral riches. The National Security Service, and [Prosecutor General] Aghvan Hovsepyan are well aware of it but they do nothing to disclose the crimes as they are also involved in them," he said.
The Karabakh war veteran says Serzh Sargsyan and his relatives commit crimes but no one dares to speak out against them.
The Fatherland and Honor Party, which supported Armenia's first President Levon Ter-Petrosyan during the previous presidential elections, is not going to support any of the presidential nominees in February's presidential polls. Nor will the party name its candidate.
