The leader of the National Self-Determination Union addressed a letter
to the government calling to celebrate the 40th anniversary of
establishment of the United National Party along with the independence
of Armenia. On March 24 Paruir Hairikyan, the leader of the National
Self-Determination Union, gave a news conference at the Pakagits
Club. He is convinced that the 40th anniversary of the UNP in 1966,
which was reshaped into the NSDU in 1987, should be celebrated
nationally for this political party was alone to raise national
strategic problems in the Soviet Union.
`The UNP-NSDU generated the Christian Democratic, the Republican and
several other political parties. If not for all the parties, but for
some of them the celebration of the 40th anniversary of the UNP-NSDU
should be like the duty of the son before his father,' says Paruir
Hairikyan.
The National Self-Determination Union is negotiating with the
government for the national celebration of the 40th anniversary of the
United National Party. To organize the celebration Paruir Hairikyan
has even put aside his contradiction with regard to the national
liberation past of the prime minister.
Hairikyan does not even deny that Andranik Margaryan had been involved
in the activity of the United National Party but later voluntarily
wrote a letter of repentance to the Soviet government. `I do not
accuse people who wrote a letter of repentance because the pressure
was tremendous. I simply told them that such people have no right to
speak in the name of the United National Party,' says Paruyr
Hairikyan. According to him, the government worries that the
celebration of the anniversary of a party is celebrated nationally,
others not.
`But is there any other party that has set and reached strategic aims
for the nation. If we assume that the Communist Party, for instance,
is an Armenian party; its aim was to build socialism. Where is it now?
Dashnaktsutiun pursued the sovereignty of West Armenia. What is the
outcome? Similarly, the Hnchaks, Democrats, and others,' says Paruir
Hairikyan, emphasizing that the aim of the United National Party to
reach the independence of Armenia is the reality. Paruir Hairikyan
believes that the UNP-NSDU was the center of the Soviet dissent and
the force that directed the liberation movements that followed.
Hence, the movement for independence of the United National Party
deeply undermined the Soviet Union, which facilitated independence.
`The 15th anniversary of independence will be celebrated. If we fail
to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the UNP-NSDU, it will be similar
to admiring one of the ballets by Aram Khachatryan without mentioning
the author's name,' says the leader of the National Self-Determination
Union. He announces that the struggle for independence is still going
on, this time against Russian chauvinism. Hairikyan says there are no
problems with Russia, the problem is the chauvinism and KGB agents
swarming all over Armenia. `If Russia were a genuine democratic
country, its special services would not keep secret files on dozens of
thousands of Armenians,' says Paruir Hairikyan. He believes that these
files are the reason why the Armenian factories are transferred to
Russia in return for the debt.
