/PanARMENIAN.Net/ By signing RA-Turkish Protocols, Armenia lost
its last trump card – Armenian Genocide, Marxist Party leader David
Hakobyan told a news conference in Yerevan. The main concern, in his
opinion, is that Diaspora might try to achieve recognition of Armenian
Genocide independently, without Armenia’s involvement.
Commenting upon U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s statement on
the impossibility of maintaining long status quo in Karabakh conflict,
Hakobyan said that statement has already received Azeri President’s
response that the problem of 5 regions is already resolved. Â"Another
concern is that Karabakh may follow Diaspora’s example and express
willingness to resolve conflict without Armenia,Â" he stressed.
Marxist party leader also commented on recent Turkey-Armenia match,
saying that defeat was suffered not only by soccer team, but also
national doctrine, "Pan-Armenian National Movement is an outdated
category. The country needs a new leader, an ‘architect’, who
will create a new political and economic concept," Hakobyan said,
characterizing Republican Party as the prototype of Pan-Armenian
National Movement.
