THE AMBITIONS DESTROYED THE COALITION
[02:10 pm] 12 May, 2006
«Before the elections the authorities must come to an agreement about
three posts: the President, the Prime Minister and the NA
President. It was obvious last year that Arthur Baghdasaryan was not
meant for any of the three posts by this agreement», NA deputy
Shavarsh Kocharyan told «A1+».
According to him, the problem is not that Baghdasaryan must become
another Sahakashvili, neither that he can be an unwanted
rival. According to Kocharyan, Arthur Baghdasaryan was in a situation
when he had high ambitions but was not placed in the agreement of the
authorities. So he had either to perform a secondary role or to
quit. He chose the second option.
Asked the question if the fact that Arthur Baghdasaryan becomes
opposition will not 'hit' the opposition itself, Shavarsh Kocharyan
answered that the opposition has been 'hit' so many times that this
step can even contribute to its coming to its senses. According to
him, Robert Kocharyan will not dissolve the Parliament as he will not
benefit from it.
