YEREVAN, MAY 15, NOYAN TAPAN. “During this period a number of
politicians, persons, in their opinion, tried to make use of the
situation, there were and I think there will be those who will
cast political stones at the Orinats Yerkir” Mher Shahgeldian,
Orinats Yerkir (Country of Law) Party Vice-Chairman, Chairman of
RA NA Standing Committee on Defence, National Security and Internal
Affairs, expressed such an opinion about the recent home political
developments. Meanwhile, he reminded that “there is time to cast
stones and there is time to gather stones”. According to him,
attempts to apply “dirty technologies” are being already made at
present but each step against the party will receive an adequate
answer. OYP coalition partners, the Republican Party of Armenia
(RPA) and the ARF Dashnaktsutiun, are rather reserved in their their
comments. The ARF considers OYP’s leaving the coalition as a “normal
civilized fenomenon” and thinks that “there is no need to look for any
tragedy here”. In particular, according to Hrayr Karapetian, Secretary
of NA ARF Dashnaktsutiun faction, it is up to each political force
to decide its future policy and actions plan. RPA also considers
the recent home political developments to be “natural”. According
to Galust Sahakian, Head of the party’s parliamentary faction, the
above-mentioned developments are also conditioned by the circumstance
that 2006 is a preelection year. The above-mentioned two coalition
forces reaffirm that they will continue to act within the framework
of the memorandum signed on June 11 2003 being ready for cooperation
with other political forces.
