GOVERNMENT DID NOT ORGANIZE OCTOBER 27
Lragir, Armenia
Nov 6 2006
An amazing tendency is observed among the Armenian opposition. The
people who balanced a considerable part of their political career on
the accusations against the government for October 27 are now denying
that they ever accused this government of organizing it. The first
was Aram Z. Sargsyan, Vazgen Sargsyan’s brother, who announced that
he had accused the government of failing to prevent and reveal, not
of organizing. And only a week later another similar statement was
heard November 4 from the opposition camp. This time it came from the
camp of Karen Demirchyan’s followers. The secretary of the People’s
Party Stepan Zakaryan stated November 4 that they never accused the
government of organizing but accused of failure to reveal the case.
And like Galust Sahakyan, Stepan Zakaryan thinks that it was organized
by forces from the outside. He declines to say which outside namely,
saying that there are no definite facts. He says that it is the
"outside", which would like Armenia to lose independence, adding that
it might be favorable for all the outside forces. And the Armenian
government carried out the instruction from the outside and did
everything to hinder the revelation of the case, thinks the secretary
of the People’s Party. And since the rephrased accusations of the
opposition are already heard more frequently, the week-old observation
by Garnik Isagulyan, adviser to president becomes rather interesting
that when the government is accused of failure to prevent October 27,
first it is necessary to find out who power belonged to before that
date. Isagulyan hints that according to the statements of the same
opposition Karen Demirchyan and Vazgen Sargsyan made decisions in the
country until October 27. In other words, Isagulyan swiftly redirects
accountability for failure to prevent October 27 at the victims.
In this connection Stepan Zakaryan says that the memory of the
opposition is not bad. "Let’s remember who was in charge of security,
who the minister of security was. The minister of home affairs resigned
because he felt he was accountable," says Stepan Zakaryan.
According to him, it was necessary to see who was in charge of what.
Besides, Stepan Sakaryan advises Garnik Isagulyan the adviser, "The
security adviser should advise Robert Kocharyan that in the current
state of security when Azerbaijan’s military budget exceeds ten
times that of Armenia, the defense minister had better do his job,"
says Stepan Zakaryan.
