All the explanations of the secession of Orinats Yerkir from the coalition
have been clearly stated, and there is no need to look for an extraordinary or
treacherous element, stated Garnik Isagulyan, adviser to president, May 20. `
In fact, the political parties of the coalition disagreed on some issues,
and when Orinats Yerkir understood that their disagreement transgressed the
agreement they had signed, I think it was quite regular that they rejectedthe
common way of the coalition, and it is normal, because all the offices had
been appointed on a common arrangement, it is natural there would occur the
actions that followed,' said Garnik Isagulyan. He also rejects the
suggestions
that it was an attempt to punish Orinats Yerkir and its leader for a
disagreement with the leadership.
`Many tend to look for the reason of everything at the residence of the
president. I have stated that the head of state, though most people ascribe the
processes of establishment and dissolution of political parties to him, isnot
such a president. There could not have been pressure on behalf of the
administration of the president. I do not think that at some time Arthur
Baghdasaryan hesitated to express his opinion, and I do not know under what
circumstances steps would be taken against him,' says Garnik Isagulyan. According to
him, it is quite different when a political figure speaks about questions which
are outside his competence, expresses an opinion, whereas such questions are
not within his competence. In addition, Garnik Isagulyan emphasizes that his
words refer not only to Arthur Baghdasaryan but also other figures.
According to him, the problem is that Orinats Yerkir considered the
coalition a narrow circle and chose to go to a wider field. According to Isagulyan,
it is a regular thing. The adviser to the president mentions that the Orinats
Yerkir Party announced about becoming constructive opposition, and further
activities will show. As for the possibility that the entrance of Orinats
Yerkir may change the quality of the opposition, Garnik Isagulyan finds it
difficult to tell, or he is reluctant to tell, he simply begs God for the entrance
of Orinats Yerkir to change the quality of the opposition.
