Armenian National Congress representative David Shahnazaryan is
certain that the members of the ANC are the future authorities and
opposition. Shahnazaryan assured journalists today that the ANC is sure
of one thing and that is change of power and special parliamentary
elections. As for the resolution of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict,
they will determine that after reaching the first goal.

"What we need today is change of power, power of the people and the
people’s opposition. Then, we will determine which resolution is in
favor of our people and Artsakh," said David Shahnazaryan, arguing that
the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict has entered a very grave stage. He has
the impression that the great powers are going to compel a solution
to the sides.

According to him, there are four factors that can impede the process.

"If Armenia sees change of power, parliamentary and presidential
elections and if it is possible to form a government elected by
the people soon, it will be possible to improve some points of the
document that is currently on the table," said the ANC representative
and listed the other three factors.

The second factor, according to him, is for Russia to change its
decision; the third is for Azerbaijan’s president not to be satisfied
with all he receives and fourth, the geopolitical force-majeure.

"It is very possible for us to hold special rallies depending on the
developments," said David Shahnazaryan.

According to him, the processes have become so active and dangerous
that instead of trying to save the situation, the authorities avoid
taking responsibility and he considered former president Robert
Kocharyan and foreign affairs minister Vardan Oskanyan as the ones
responsible.

"I am inviting Oskanyan to a debate so that I can prove that all
that he said was not true and that he and Kocharyan are the ones most
responsible for all this."
