THERE ARE PEOPLE IN ARMENIA WHO AGREE FOR ANY MISFORTUNES AND
DISTRESSES OF THE COUNTRY FOR THEIR COMING TO POWER: SERGE SARGSIAN

YEREVAN, DECEMBER 9. ARMINFO. “It seems that there are people in
Armenia who agree for any misfortunes and distress of the country for
their coming to power”. Defence Minister of Armenia Serge Sargsian
stated.

Answering the question of Yerevan’s newspaper Golos Armenii on that
the opposition is spreading rumors on that after the events in the
Ukraine Armenia is the next, the minister said: “The people who do not
accept today’s power of Armenia, dream of somebody who will come from
outside and establish other orders, though we have just 2-3 years
before the elections and a democratic victory is possible for them. In
this context it is painful to see some of our politicians that are
openly offer themselves to the external forces. Have they forgotten
the times of Tibzon? I do not want to transfer all these talks to the
personal level, but sounding assessments of the situation do not
promote raising of our defensive capacity. They do not promote the
Karabakh issue settlement either, as not only we are aware of our
domestic political situation. For instance, our press is read out of
the country as well. All this pours water to another person’s
mill. When in Azerbaijan they read public statements of some of our
politicians, not knowing who is the author (but we know that nobody is
behind them) the Azerbaijani people and army get a wrong impression
about our realities. There is an impression that there are people in
Armenia which agree to any misfortunes and catastrophe of the country
for their coming to power. If some deadly incidents affect fighting
capacity of the army, such kind of shouts cause not less damage to it,
the defence minister of Armenia said.
