An unprecedented event took place in the new political history of
Armenia - the representatives of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation,
the Armenian Pan-National Movement and the Armenian Republican Party
united in one format and signed a document. This took place within
the framework of the youth structures of the parties.
The Club of Young Politicians displayed initiative condemning
the phenomena which are already becoming normal in the political
field. "We, young politicians, regardless of our political views
and approaches, condemn such vicious principles as non-fidelity
to principle, treachery, and immoral careerism. We call on all
the political powers in the RA, public figures and journalists to
boycott the immoral activity of the above mentioned 'politicians'",
the joint message of the young politicians says. It was signed by
the representatives of nine political powers.
As for the reason of the initiative, the last straw was the incident
with the "Heritage" party when the members of the party learned that
their young colleague Edgar Hakobyan engages in espionage. After
being dismissed from the party Hakobyan convened a news conference
and started to slander the party the member of which he used to be.
By the way, this was the last case of the kind. Before that there
were suchlike cases in the Republican Party, in the Party "New Times"
and the OYP. The young politicians gathered to condiment not the
individuals who left their parties, but the phenomenon in general.
"If the political system is not well realized, this does not mean
that they can wander from this party to that and see where they can
have more profit," said Arman Vardanyan, the president of the Club
of Young Politicians.
According to Narek Malyan, the head of the youth wing of the Party
"New Times", a politician must have fidelity to principle as it is
also good for the journalists who try to find out the principles of
this or that politician in their interview. And if he does not have
principles, that what is he working for?
On the whole the young politicians were concerned by the fact that
this phenomenon is gradually becoming usual in Armenia. They claimed
that the society must understand the danger that comes from those
people and condemn them. They offered to make a list of "outcasts"
- a so-called "black list" which will include the names of the
politicians they must beware.
And today besides signing the statement the young politicians announced
that they will boycott those who have betrayed their parties; they
will not have debates with them and will not unite with them in one
format. They also advised all the political powers not to cooperate
with those who have left their parties as he who has betrayed once
will do it a second time.
