Shavarsh Kocharyan, the leader of the National Democratic Party, was
among the first who commented May 13 on the resignation of Speaker
Arthur Baghdasaryan and secession of the Orinats Yerkir Party from the
coalition.He stated at the Azdak Club that he had predicted this
political divorce two years ago.
Shavarsh Kocharyan says having such big political ambitions the leader
of the Orinats Yerkir Party could not stay in the government because
no place had been foreseen for him in the first three positions.
`In the context of the upcoming election, there should obviously be a
package solution: president, prime minister, speaker. It is obvious
that pretenders are many, and Arthur Baghdasaryan was not one of them,
and realizing this and having serious political ambitions, Orinats
Yerkir either had to accept a lower position and to lower their
ambitions, or become opposition with big ambitions,' says Shavarsh
Kocharyan.
According to Shavarsh Kocharyan, it does not matter what place Orinats
Yerkir will have in the opposition, or how the other opposition forces
will accept it. He says the attitude and evaluation of the people and
society will be more important and deciding. Shavarsh Kocharyan says
the assessment of the government by Orinats Yerkir and its
self-assessment for the years in government is also very
important. The leader of the National Democratic Party believes that
similar statements are not enough to become opposition, therefore
Shavarsh Kocharyan advises to wait for the future actions of Orinats
Yerkir.
He does not exclude that Arthur Baghdasaryan's step was a result of
agreement with the government. However, Shavarsh Kocharyan does not
insiston it either. He considers the step of Orinats Yerkir
inevitable, because this political party has big ambitions.
