KOCHARYAN IS NOT A `GOVERNOR’, ARMENIA IS NOT A `GOVERNMENT’

Touching upon the present Armenian-Russian relations and their further
developing the head of Progressive Liberal Party Hovhannes
Hovhannisyan mentions that it is no longer news for him that there are
no interstate relations between Armenia and Russia.

As the politician says the relation is like the relation between elder
and younger brothers or a great state and outpost.

The head of PLP also finds it inadmissible that there were only 6
Russian representatives present at the inauguration of RA President
Robert Kocharyan. Judging by that there is the impression that Armenia
is all in all one of `Russian provinces’ and Russia, and the
representatives of the centre had come to congratulate the `governor’
with the appointment. /Panorama.am/
