THE REVOLUTION BURIED THOSE WHO DECLARED IT

Kocharian says-You have connected the later participation of NDP in the
works of "Justice" with the readiness of "correcting own mistakes".
How do you imagine it?- We think that it is natural for the bloc to analyze
its results why it happened in that way and to go to appropriate conclusions.
And if "Justice" really manages to appraise it rightly the same mistakes
won’t be repeated in the future. And if its no, NDU has nothing to do in "Justice".-
When do you expect the answer of that question?- It’s natural we won’t wait
for the long time. If the bloc doesn’t over estimate its policy we’ll understand
it us an answer. And we will act during that.- They promised before the referendum
to give your remarks after the promised revolution of "Republic" Now
it is obvious it won’t be realized in 2005.- What was obvious for us in Summer
that there isn’t any revolutionary atmosphere in Armenia, now it is obvious even
for those who considered themselves the organizers and leaders of that future
revolution.- It isn’t obvious for all the people; the leader of ‘Republic’
party keeps insisting that the revolution is too near and it is too early to bury
it."- Neither burying the revolution nor organizing it depends on the
wish of a person. There must be an appropriate atmosphere. It’s another thing
that the formation of that atmosphere also depends on the opposition and the opposition
can bury the revolution by its illiterate steps. Though there wasn’t any revolutionary
atmosphere but the possibility of doing a revolution in the near future was buried
by those people who were declaring it when there was no possibility of it.-
What steps of the opposition do you consider "illiterate" besides refusing
the Constitutional amendments?- They must understand that constitutional referendum
isn’t the occasion by which it is possible to do a revolution and they must abstain
from declaring 27 of November as a day of revolution. There had to have enough
experience and knowledge for predicting all these. And in general the days of
revolution aren’t declared. – Argue your affirmation that the opposition wasn’t
able to realize a revolution.- And more it wasn’t even able to disclose the
predicted falsifications of the referendum, control and produce it. The real situation
is aground for that affirmation.- Insisting on the lack of revolutionary atmosphere
in the country do you deny that people are dissatisfied from the social-economic
situation and from the authorities in general?- Being dissatisfied from the
authority doesn’t mean that people trust in the opposition. That is the atmosphere
of complaint isn’t enough? People must believe in the opposition and the steps,
which will lead to the changeover of political powers, must express it.- Other
oppositionists insist that the proof of confidence towards them is that people
didn’t go to the polling stations on 27 of November.- I have a different remark.
I said about it during the second reading of constitutional amendments that it
isn’t possible that the necessary quorum will be provided by the summons of the
opposition. The main reason that very few people went to the referendum is that
people don’t trust in the authority and election institutions.- What kind
of step do you imagine for European integration and development?- People must
see a literate, decisive opposition. As there is always a reason to suspect in
decisiveness when people declare for example that they must do a revolution, leave
the hall during g the second reading and then find themselves in the NA hall in
some days and ask questions seriously to that non-legitimate government which
they must dismiss on 27 of November.- Will your appraisals be changed if you
kept produce ‘Justice" in the PACE delegation of Armenia?- It would be
better for us that decision succeeded the NDU declaration. Certainly, they wouldn’t
be changed. The circumstance that the "Justice" took that decision is
the result of those reasons, which we propose to remove.Interview by
