Shadow economists and criminal elements in Armenia are tired of serving
others and want to grab power, deputy Shavarsh Kocharyan warns. He says
that the political, economic, administrative and criminal structures
have united into one which will result in handing the power on to
each other like batons.
Referring to the arrest of NA deputy Hakob Hakobyan, Shavarsh Kocharyan
said that "this way the authorities sort out their relationship",
otherwise other deputies would be punished too in similar
circumstances. "He has broken the laws of the game", Kocharyan said.
According to him, Hakob Hakobyan may be punished by losing a
significant sum of money.
The Parliamentary elections are to be held in six months, but the
opposition unites in the anti-criminal movement instead of uniting
for gaining power.
According to the head of the National Democratic Party, this is rather
strange; that’s why his party did not join the movement.
He also claimed that combat against criminals is the business of the
authorities and not that of the opposition as they do not have police
or courts.
