Political technologist: turning Tsarukyan into a political martyr is not in the interests of Pashinyan

ArmInfo.The transformation of the  leader of "Prosperous Armenia" Gagik Tsarukyan into a political  martyr clearly does not proceed from the interests of Prime Minister  Nikol Pashinyan. ArmInfo political strategist Armen Badalyan  expressed this opinion.  

"In this light, I don't expect any special  pressure on the party and Mr. Tsarukyan personally. If Tsarukyan  really violated the Constitution, then, of course, he should be  deprived of his deputy's mandate. step ".  Over the past year, it has  finally become clear that the repressive methods clearly do not fit  into the political arsenal of Pashinyan and his immediate  environment. Moreover, there is no reason to waste our high rating in  the now unnecessary fight against" Prosperous Armenia "has no  Pashinyan," the political consultant is convinced.

The question of the presence of business in the National Assembly of  Armenia has once again become the focus of public attention through  the efforts of the party "Citizen Decision". On April 29, Secretary  of the party's executive body Suren Sahakyan sent a statement to  Armenian Prosecutor General Arthur Davtyan about the need to initiate  criminal proceedings against Prosperous Armenia Party leader, MP  Gagik Tsarukyan. The reason for the statement was the suspicion of  illegal entrepreneurial activity by the deputy Tsarukyan. Sahakyan  also sent a statement to RA NA President Ararat Mirzoyan with a  request to take appropriate actions in pursuance of Art. 157 of the  law <Regulations of the National Assembly>, in particular, to appeal  to the Constitutional Court of Armenia on the issue of termination of  powers of a deputy in case of violation of the requirements of  Article 95 of the Constitution of the Republic of Armenia.

According to Badalyan, representatives of the Decision of the Citizen  party, who did not go to parliament in the last elections, thus  simply decided to loudly declare themselves. Having started up in the  media and the public agenda the idea of bringing Tsarukyan to  responsibility and depriving him of his deputy's mandate, they are  trying to attract public attention. However, the authorities rummage  in the past Tsarukyan and his party, according to the forecasts of  the political consultant, will not. Today, they simply do not need  it, especially since any pressure will only enhance the image of  Tsarukyan. 

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
