YEREVAN, DECEMBER 19, NOYAN TAPAN. "Political arbitrariness has
reached its peak in Armenia, as the authorities act under the slogan
"it is possible to achieve something only by force." Nor Zhamanakner
(New Times) Party Chairman Aram Karapetian made such statement at the
December 19 sitting of the Anti-criminal Movement. Touching upon RA
President Robert Kocharian’s recent interview to three TV companies,
A.Karapetian said that being the first person of the country he
should not lay the whole responsibility on the political forces or
declare that there will be falsifications during the elections. In
A.Karapetian’s words, the country’s President should offer a way of
preventing these falsifications and not call the oppositionists for
not being bribed during the elections. According to the Anti-criminal
Movement’s statement, R.Kocharian and RA Defence Minister Serge
Sargsian "try to form an impression among the international community
and the leadership of the OSCE Minsk Group country-co-chairs that
allegedly the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict is fraught
with very serious consequences, even danger of coup." So, the statement
read, Kocharian-Sargsian duet tries to prove to the international
community that only they are able to solve the Nagorno Karabakh
problem and beg the latter’s indulgence for reproducing themselves
at the forthcoming parliamentary and presidential elections at the
expense of already planned falsifications."
A.Karapetian declared that the Anti-criminal Movement condemns the
adventurous policy and instigating actions of the authorities.
