YEREVAN, MARCH 5, NOYAN TAPAN. "Armenia is at the stage of stably
developing crisis." Aram G. Sargsian, the Chairman of the Democratic
Party of Armenia stated about it at the 7th congress of the party
on March 3. In his words, processes taking place in Armenia during
the recent years brought to formation of the clan-oligarchic system
which excludes possibility of normal development of the country. He
mentioned that not science and industry but sphere of service
develops in Armenia. A.Sargsian stated that in the formed situation
when economy is practically monopolized by few big oligarches, and
80 per cent of the country population drags pitiful existence, power
shift, sponsored by the clan-oligarhic system, is a primary task:
"It is necessary that the ruling regime bears responsibility for it
has done before the people, and it must become a lesson for the next
authorities," A.Sargsian stated. As for the May 12 elections of the
National Assembly of Armenia, he expressed sorrow that the opposition
did not manage to form blocs based on ideological generality.
A.Sargsian stated that the DPA proposes all the opposition forces
to form a united headquarters for control of the elections: "If the
opposition is not able to unite in this case, either, I will already
start doubting if it is an opposition or just anybody’s appointed
people," the DPA Chairman stated. The congress in which 300 delegates
participated heard the control commission’s report, elected heading
bodies of the party and affirmed changes in the party program.
