IF ARMENIAN PRESIDENT DOES NOT HOLD REFORMS "FROM ABOVE" TIMELY, THE
SCENARIO OF KYRGHYZIA IS NOT RULED OUT IN ARMENIA: LEADER OF NEW
TIMES PARTY
YEREVAN, MARCH 21. ARMINFO. To drive from power the incumbent
president of Kyrghyzia Askar Akayev, a relevant mechanism has already
been introduced and all the technologies are activated, Leader of new
Times party, political scientist Aram Karapetyan comments on the
situation in Kyrghyzia to ARMINFO.
He says that the recent description of the situation in Kyrghyzia
after two rounds of parliamentary elections as "quiet and calm" does
not correspond to reality as Jalal-Abad has rallied for already a
month, the regional administration "ran" to Bishkek long ago. One
should remember that all the post- Soviet events in Kyrghyzia
starting from the late 80s were especially bloody and the confronting
parties were especially irreconcilable, that is why, one should not
wave away what there happens at present. And the 4 policemen and 6
picketers killed yesterday are evidence of it. External forces
undoubtedly support the opposition, though there is also national
rise. A scenario of driving Akayev from power at the presidential
elections fixed for October is developed, "but in case of a strong
pressure, it is not ruled out that he will be made to leave already
now." Russia is concerned over only maintenance of its authority and
it has already no time to support anyone, Karapetyan thinks.
He does not rule out repetition of Kyrghyz events in Armenia. If
Armenian President Robert Kocharyan does not hold reforms "from
above" timely, the scenario of Kyrghyzia is not ruled out in Armenia,
the talks of Robert Kocharyan "suits" everyone does not correspond to
reality. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid repetition of
Ukrainian and even more the Georgian scenarios where people far from
national interests have come to power. Revolution must be exclusively
from inside, without interference of external forces, Karapetyan
says.
