Aram Karapetyan to Levon Ter-Petrosyan. “First, you become an opposition that we be an opposition to you.”

October 29,2014 18:38

“Levon Ter-Petrosyan is not changed, and I bow my head on his ability to pick up people, use them and then quit”, so responded Aram Karaptyan, the Head of “New Times” political party, during the discussion hosted at the Union of Political Sciences of Armenia regarding the consequences of Armenia’s accession to the Eurasian Economic Union. He said that he has seen a lot, but what Levon Ter-Petrosyan succeeded in, he has not seen anything like it. Later on, Mr. Karapetyan listed “the ones who were used and then quit” by Levon Ter-Petrosyan. “I can list Vazgen Manukyan, Vano Siradeghyan, Khachatur Sukiasyan, Nikol Pashinyan, everyone, who were next to him. It is normal in the politics.”

To our question of whether Levon Ter-Petrosyan will be successful to so behave with PAP leader Gagik Tsarukyan, Mr. Karapetyan responded, “I do not know, what I’ve seen you have seen too. Everything happened in front of your eyes. But Mr. Ter-Petrosyan’s experience, in this respect, the skill, the form of expressing the outcome of the political mind, the logic, would be difficult for Tsarukyan.” We were interested to know where the parliamentary Trio’s activities are leading to, today, the “National Accord” political party also joined the Trio, Mr. Karapetyan responded, “I do not think that at this point there are developments. As far as I understood, there will be a requirement for extraordinary parliamentary elections. Now, the government authorities would hardly go for this step, because frankly speaking, we have not heard explanations for why. If it is the opposition, then the opposition has always demanded Serzh Sargsyan’s resignation. It’s understandable. Maybe, the Georgian scenario will operate, according to which, by taking the parliament, they will for a government. But so far, now the government has no argument for doing it other than the agreements.”

To our observation that seemingly, Aram Karapetyan withstands the opposition, about which Ter-Petrosyan had said, “The opposition’s opposition is Serzh Sargsyan’s friend.” Mr. Karapetyan responded, “Levon Ter-Petrossian makes political-scientific mistakes, exclusion of the third force for a person with the title of doctorate, who is in the politics for a long time, is unforgivable. Ninety percent of those delivering speeches at the rally are making political scientific mistakes.”

Afterwards, turning to Levon Ter-Petrosyan, Mr. Karapetyan said jokingly, “Mr. Ter-Petrosyan, if I were one of your said nervous people, I would say, first you become an opposition so that we become an opposition to you. You call you, I mean the parliamentary Trio, a non-governmental and alternative. With such childish terms, Mr. Ter-Petrosyan cannot force anyone to listen to his opinion. I would just recommend, if they had rooted the process to the end, then it would be evident who their friends are.”
