GRIGOR HAROUTIUNIAN: POWER NOT FORMED BY PEOPLE CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE BEFORE PEOPLE
YEREVAN, DECEMBER 22, NOYAN TAPAN. In 2006, Armenia did not succeed
in the sphere of foreign policy: on the contrary, regress was
registered in the Nagorno Karabakh problem being the most important
for the country. Grigor Haroutiunian, RA NA Ardarutiun (Justice)
faction Secretary, PPA Board member, declared this on December 22
at the National Press Club. In his words, criminogenic situation
aggravated in the country in the passing year. "Only in autumn this
year the public witnessed murders of two community heads. If even
community heads are unprotected, we can say that the whole people is
unprotected," the opposition faction secretary said. In his words,
murders happen in all countries, but unlike other countries no
murder is disclosed in Armenia and impunity gives rise to new and
new crimes. G.Haroutiunian also emphasized that each crime even on
domestic ground is perceived by public as a political processs, which
proceeds from the situation formed in the country. In the words of
the Ardarutiun faction secretary, we could consider as achievements
of the passing year the Constitutional Court’s decisions connected
with formation of electoral commissions and violation of Norther
Avenue’s former residents’ rights, but they were never fulfilled. As
G.Haroutiunian affirmed, the people and the opposition forces should
consolidate for coming out of the formed situation. In his words,
first we should put an end to the tradition when the people cannot
exercise its constitutional right of forming the power. "As long as
the people does not form the power, this power cannot be responsible
before the people," he declared.
