YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 1, NOYAN TAPAN. "System changes should be made
in Armenia, as current Armenia is not able to become a regional
factor." Declaring this at the November 1 press conference, Aram
G.Sargsian, Chairman of the Democratic Party of Armenia, at the
same time mentioned that in order to make these changes we should
ged rid of the current authorities, as the country does not need
cosmetic changes. In connection with the forthcoming parliamentary
elections of 2007 A.Sargsian said that a third force should be formed
in consideration of the circumstance that there are already two main
political forces, the Republican Party of Armenia and the Bargavach
Hayastan (Prosperous Armenia). In the opinion of DPA leader, the
opposition can pretend to formation of the third force. Touching upon
passing the prevailing majority of enterprises of Armenian energy
sphere to Russia, A.Sargsian declared that the authorities had no
right to alienate these enterprises. "They should even if have
turned them into joint ventures." Not excluding the possibility
of returning the entities passed to Russia, he at the same time
said that this will be impossible in case of further growth of the
national debt. "The entities, at the expense of which the country could
develop have been given to others today, no matter to whom exactly,"
A.Sargsian declared. He said that the personal interests of the current
authorities are the basis of these bargains. Characterizing the conduct
of the Armenian President during his last visit to Moscow as conduct
"of not partner, but person accountable to Russia," A.Sargsian at
the same time did not agree to the opinion that RF is not interested
in Armenia’s development. "Russia does not need weak partners,"
DPA leader declared. He pointed to the necessity to preserve good
relations with Russia.
