`WE MUST UNITE’

«The Armenian won the Karabakh war because they left aside individual
interests and united together. If we want to win today, we must unite. The
society thinks that each party has its interests, that’s why they do not
unite», said secretary of the Social powers and Intelligentsia Union Ashot
Manoucharyan during the National Democratic Union 16th session and added,
«If you can unite, do it, and if you cannot, you are to blame for the
situation».

Leader of the Republican party Aram Sargsyan did not agree with the idea and
announced that not the parties but the society must be united. `The parties
will never be more united than they are’, he said and added that every party
and every person may have committed mistakes and must confess them, the best
way of which is to organize a revolution.

Let us also mention that the National Democratic Union session as one of the
unique sessions at which representatives of almost all the political parties
were present.

Arshak Sadoyan, who was also present, greeted the participants and referring
to the revolution theme said that the present authorities will not resign by
their own will.

As for the governing parties, member of the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation Levon Lazarian and Orinats Yerkir Party Artak Araqelyan greeted
the participants. The latter agreed with the ideas of the oppositional
bodies and said that he feels their concern about the country.

Announcing that in past they were allies with the National Democratic Union,
Levon Lazarian highly appreciated the political past of their leader Vazgen
Manoukyan considering him one of the most experienced political bodies.
