Big News Network.com Monday 28th March, 2005 (UPI)
A democratic revolution like that in Kyrgyzstan is impossible in
Armenia, its prime minister said Monday.
Interfax news agency quoted Premier Andranik Margarian as telling
reporters the kind of popular protest movement that toppled
authoritarian governments in the former Soviet republics of Georgia,
Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan in the past 18 months is impossible in Armenia
because the underlying problems that triggered the unrest don't exist
in Armenia.
Undoubtedly, there are social and economic problems in Armenia, but
they are not the sort of problems that can be used to make a
revolution, he said.
Margarian said his government was constantly undertaking democratic
and economic reforms. Also, he said the Armenian opposition would not
do anything that could lead to serious destabilization, Interfax
said.
