ANTI-CRIMINAL GOES TO THE STREET
Lragir, Armenia
Dec 21 2006
On December 21 public hearings of the anti-criminal movement took
place, which is the last event of the anti-criminal movement in 2006.
Aram Karapetyan, the leader of the Nor Zhamanakner Party, said the
events will continue after the holidays and it is possible that the
movement will take more definite actions in the street. Aram Karapetyan
mentioned that many political parties of the movement have agreed.
The leader of the Nor Zhamanakner Party said it is impossible to change
power in Armenia through an election, and in this case there can be
two ways: either to come together and lose the country or to come
together and fight through all the possible means. Aram Karapetyan
stated that the peaceful way is the most preferable form of civil
disobedience and he is against hard struggle.
"The UN convention states that if the government is against the people,
defies the principles of democracy, does not ensure progress, has
usurped power, anyone and any group of people can revolt against such
a government," Aram Karapetyan stated. He said when the repressive
administration moves forward by crushing everything on its way,
the civil disobedience can be rather tough.
Although Aram Karapetyan has stated that it is impossible to change
power in Armenia through an election, he mentioned that the upcoming
election is the crucial political moment that must be used for a change
of power. The leader of the Nor Zhamanakner Party said personally
he would prefer applying the Georgian model of the change of power
to Armenia.
