Specificities of the new-formed majority in the parliament according
to the RPA soviet member, RPA fraction deputy Armen Ashotian.
The RPA fraction leader Galust Sahakian has already declared publicly:
Â"The field of mutual agreements is enlarged and others, Â"People's
deputyÂ", ULP, will also get the existed levers. The ULP leader
Gurgen Arsenian reminded Â"RegnumÂ" yesterday that the ULP was for
Robert Kocharian's pre-electoral project and they would continue
the collaboration. We also must remind that the ULP declared a "cold
war" to the coalition in the enlarged sitting of the city soviet on
22 of July, and Gurgen Arsenian promised that they would continue
in a strong way. And more, he declared the ARF as the ideological
opponent of the party, RPA as the administrative opponent, and partly
the OEP. In this case how Gurgen Arsenian explains the readiness
of collaborating with the ARF and RPA will be obvious after the
sitting of the party soviet. But before we reminded the RPA fraction
deputy Armen Ashotian the ULP these positions and were interested
how he considered collaboration with the party which declared them a
"cold war". "Political processes have a logic, clash or coincidence
of interests, -Mr. Ashotian answered. - I think it is possible to
find points of coincidence of interests with your mentioned political
powers before parliamentary elections. It is wrong to exclude anything
in the policy. The joint activities of the RPA and ARF with the ULP,
'People's deputy" or new formed dep uty group, I think, will be by the
principle of synthesizing of interests. If the coalition was formed
by incompatible political powers, which signed an agreement round
general strategic superiorities and were working for three years,
then I don't exclude that collaboration will take place among these
political powers though without that juridical formulation. I think
the NA work will be continued in ordinary way and there will be no
problem of decisive majority during voting as it will be solved on
the principle of political agreements and coincidence of interests.Â"
It is less possible but "People's deputy" can threaten the agreements,
because its members don't intend to collaborate with the coalition. We
should remind that though Â"People's deputyÂ" group was voting
in decisive moments as the majority wanted, the head of the group
Karen Karapetian was criticizing the coalition. Let's cite one of
such examples; Karen Karapetian declared in last February that the
coalition wasn't only able to lead the processes in ordinary way
but it didn't want; Â"They have divided the authority by coalition
principle and now each of them want to increase the percent of
their authority by mutual accusations. It seems to me that these
powers have come to power to feel good with their partiesÂ". The
RPA soviet member answered to this that the interpretations are the
same as it was in case of the ULP. Â"I'm sure that the RPA and ARF
will find points of contacts round of which they can work even with
the deputies of extreme demonstrationsÂ". And on this occasion he
added a factor, which will stimulate the desire of collaboration
of parliamentary powers. "Special elections aren't desirable for
democratic development of the state. Though there were declarations,
which excluded that threat, this circumstance will make political
powers work together. The time and situation has been changed. And
it is natural that other approaches are also possible".
The expression of "principle of summarizing the interests" highly
sounds but everything leads to the appointment of posts. Are they
enough in the circumstance when some persons who left the OEP still
continue to fill their posts?
But the most important thing is that whether their behavior doesn't
become standard. The RPA council member Armen Ashotian answered; I
don't think that we deepen the incompleteness of political field as
the political system can't reach to completeness only by these events."
