YEREVAN, AUGUST 9, NOYAN TAPAN. The RA Defence Minister Serge
Sargsian’s joining the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) will result
in the Armenian President Robert Kocharian’s resignation in October
or November. Davit Hakobian, Chairman of the Marxist Party, made
this statement at the August 9 press conference. "Serge Sargsian
will not be Serge Sargsian, if he does not start an active attack
this autumn with a king’s gambit," he said. According to him, either
Serge Sargsian will become the "throne’s owner" by January 2007 or
it will never happen because the affairs will take a different turn
after the parliamentary elections. "With the Republicans’ congress,
the absolute power in Armenia has finally passed to the Republican
junta, and thus a palace overturn took place, which is a political
adventure." "If the President does not leave his throne of his own free
will, two forces will clash, which will create favorable conditions
for a third force," D. Hakobian said. In the speaker’s opinion, the
political and moral decline of the nation threatens to eliminate the
Armenians as a nation. D. Hakobian noted that today the nation in
particular needs a new ideological generation change in the name of
security of the nation and its national genetic pool, a new national
concept, a new electoral code and new Constitution. The Marxist party
will participate in parliamentary elections with its own potential,
without cooperating or forming an alliance with any party. Asked if
they will receive the necessary votes, the party’s chairman replied:
the nation to move its educated sons to the background and make the
parliament a theatrical box for criminal and political dregs has no
right to survive. Every people deserves what it has chosen." Speaking
about the opposition, D. Hakobian noted that the opposition members
are even not worth mentioning because of their selfishness and for
the reason they did not develop a new ideological concept.
