Armenia’s acting PM has two complicated issues to solve, Republican party first vice chairman Vigen Sargsyan wrote in Facebook.
“First: Pashinyan must become the country’s leader and head and stop being an opposition figure voicing different speeches,” he wrote, stating that he is to form an acting responsible team from those who did nothing but criticized the former authorities.
“As head of the team he will be directly and personally responsible for the mistakes, shortcomings, crimes, inattentive phrases, self-initiated meetings, personal qualities,” he wrote, adding that Pashinyan will have to find the sensitive balance to back his teammate on one hand and not to become prisoner of the intervention himself, on the other.
As to the accusations voiced against former authorities, Sargsyan wrote that gaining points by show-ups will not help in settling the country’s development issue and neither in gaining public’s and international partners’ trust.
“Pashinyan has made people used to his graphic of 'lives' but that time has passed. The time has come to work and register results. It is necessary to move forward, assume responsibility, solve issues, establish ties, strengthen country’s defense,” Sargsyan wrote.
Speaking about the CSTO, Vigen Sargsyan stressed that since its foundation Armenia has been its most active and effective member.
“It is enough to say that during Armenia’s presidency in the organization the Collective security strategy has been adopted which was being discussed for many years. We have settled the issue of buying weapon by internal prices,” he said, adding that Armenia has got a significant practical benefit from it.
Sargsyan urged not to humiliate the work carried out previously. “It was enough to get power but will not be enough to keep it. Do more and it will be assessed by all. The time to assume responsibility has come,” Vigen Sargsyan wrote.
