OEP deputy leader Mher Shahgeldian says.
Mr. Shageldian in what is 'Orinats Erkir" /Rule of Law Party/ engaged
in this hot summer?
Summer, as a rule, is a period of vacations. But our party has never
gone on holiday completely. The party is a big supplementing political
power, there is always work to do. The party has been engaged in
organizing, analyzing works this period. Thousands of people have
applied for becoming party members.
We also work on drafts, in particular Electoral CodeÂ". So, there
are a lot of problems and the OEP tries to solve them.
Which will be the further steps of the party after becoming the
opposition?
It isn't secret that the OEP has always been active and it will
carry out active policy in the future, too. We'll be focused on the
problems of democratization of the country, fight against corruption,
protection of human rights.
In particular issues on protection of people's flat rights, which
relates to residents of Buzand, Kozern and other districts. We have
always been, are and will be a principle political power.
One of the electronic newspapers informs that the NA staff is made
deductions; in your opinion may it have any connection with some
political issues?
At NA Chairman Tigran Torosian's direction several departments and
sections are liquidated in the NA, people stay outside, and we see
political pretext here. Applying double standards in the system of
state governing is inadmissible for us. Different administrative
circles become Republican. Liquidating NA departments and delaying
international events is impossible to provide for continuity and
development of the NA activities. Thus, development of the NA staff
and foreign relations is distorted, which has recorded a great growth
since 2003.
Will the OEP participate in the parliamentary elections with blocs
or separately?
I think nowadays we are in such conditions that both authority and
opposition powers need in unification and consolidation. Civilized
world wants to see a fight designed on concepts and projects. As an
oppositionist power we are for consolidation round principles and
concepts of certain value system.
Unfortunately some people suffer from narcissism and can't be
consolidated. As regards the blocs, the time will come and we'll
announce our position. I want to stress that our party can collaborate
with all those political powers, which are ready to fight against
corruption and robbery, misuse of powers, ruling atmosphere of
fear, rigged elections. It's negative when the oligarchic groups
and shadow economy are concentrated. If the elections in Armenia
are rigged this time our country will be thrown away from regional
political basic developments, democratic world may lose its interest
toward our country. Today we need in democracy for our security and
for strengthening our positions round NK negotiating table. We must
realize that democratization is necessary for the internal development
of the country. At the same time democracy has become a geo-strategic
factor. It's also an important factor for Armenian-Turkish border's
anti-blockade, strengthening our positions in the Western world. We
need in foreign political doctrine, which must take into consideration
both securities, economic and geo-strategic problems.
