Interview By Arman Galoyan

There is an opinion that the Congress with its regional visits tries
to create the impression that it is getting prepared for extraordinary
elections. Is it true? What is the aim of the visits?

– There is some activation. Levon Ter-Petrosyan visits the houses of
the political prisoners, the participants of the political strolls
near the Saryan statue visit the houses of the March 1 victims. The
youths started their regular actions. All this has only one aim to
keep the soul of the people and get prepared for the September 18
rally. And all this is a part of the political struggle, the aim of
which is the shift of government.

-How long can you keep the soul? There are people, who state that
the public is annoyed and tired.

– In summer, there is some kind of holiday mood. But all the
headquarters of the Congress work actively. Today we had a session in
the central office of the Congress, where we discussed the question
on having responsible people in all the electoral stations of the
republic. We get prepared to be able to respond quickly to any
sudden step.

– Congress stresses the idea of extraordinary election. In your
opinion, what will make the government hold extraordinary elections?

– Many things may force it. Let me start from the most impossible one:
the sense of shame within the government. If there appear clever
people in the government, they will understand all the failures
in the home and foreign policies, in the Karabakhi conflict and in
the economy. The failures in these spheres are evident. If there are
clever people in the government, they have to advise Serge Sargsyan to
resign, because the continuation of his policy will bring the country
to a collapse. Those problems, for the solution of which the people
struggle, not only are not being solved, but also are deepening. The
society proved that it is decisive struggling in the streets for two
years and it will keep struggling until these problems are solved. The
need for a legitimate government is very much felt. It is a fact that
there are only uneducated people in the National Assembly, that it
is not a political body but a place where criminals are gathered. It
is a fact that the government is not responsible in front of the
society. The whole system works against the public.

– In your opinion, how long may this system last?

– This system cannot last long, because it leads the country into a
deadlock. It can live only on account of wasting the home resources,
which are limited. The day of the shift of the government approaches
always more. The only way to survive is the democratic system in
Armenia.

– Can you assure that Serge Sargsyan will not be able to hold his
office until the official end of his tenure?

– It is ruled out. The demand on the Karabakhi question adds to the
wasting of resources. In particular, I mean the statement of the three
presidents of the co-chair countries of the Minsk group. This document
will work and until June Serge Sargsyan has to make a decision either
to sign the document, or to resign. There is no other way out.

– Will he not have the support of the international society in case
of signing the document?

– There will be change of government in any case. In case you mentioned
he will have the protests of the Armenian and Karabakhi societies. I
stress that our country has deficit of democracy. And all the problems
of our country come from this problem. So there is only one way out –
legitimate government to be able to resist challenges.
