THERE ARE PREREQUSITES BUT NO CONVENIENT MOMENT FOR REVOLUTION IN ARMENIA
YEREVAN, MAY 27. ARMINFO. There are prerequisites but no convenient
moment for revolution in Armenia, says the leader of the New Times
party Aram Karapetyan.
The industry is not working, economic and social crisis is
aggravating, emigration is looming large. But no elections are planned
for the near future to trigger the revolution. People do not know when
they are to go into the streets. Besides the opposition is not
consolidated even though it has been showing signs of uniting over the
idea of government change.
Karapetyan says that his next rally will take place in Yerevan June 2.
Asked if the Armenian authorities may act like their counterparts did
in Uzbekistan Karapetyan says that if Pres Kocharyan goes against his
people he may face the destiny of Romanian dictator Ceausescu.
He says that revolutions are inevitable in Uzbekistan (in the next few
months), then in Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan and Armenia. Belarus is the
only exception – Lukashenko is very popular there despite all.
