    TRADE INSTEAD OF POLITICAL PROCESSES

    30 May 06

    The leader of the Democratic Party, Member of Parliament Aram Gaspari
    Sargsyan announced May 30 that the recent home political developments
    indicated that the political, economic, social crisis is deeper than
    it appears. Aram Sargsyan endorses the decision of Orinats Yerkir to
    secede from the coalition.

    However, he said, unfortunately, the resignation of Arthur
    Baghdasaryan did not allow the parliament learn about the scandals
    involving the speaker of the National Assembly and President
    Kocharyan.

    Political developments will become more attention-grabbing after
    October 2007 when the political parties, including the Democratic
    Party will have already held their meetings. `It will have become
    known who's friend and who's foe, ' predicts Aram Sargsyan,
    forecasting a tough stage of home political developments. Namely, the
    Democratic Party led by Aram Sargsyan will ally with the force which
    will make such a decision. Aram Sargsyan would like that left-wing
    and right-wing alliances form on an ideological basis, but `during the
    elections we are going to deal with those who do not care for ideas,
    they get in the political sphere by giving away part of their capital
    to keep their property and not to allow a system change.' Considering
    this, as well as the statement of Andranik Margaryan that `a
    businessman cannot be opposition' Aram Sargsyan states: `The worst
    disadvantage of this system is that there is no independent business.'
    Aram Sargsyan ascribes a role for the opposition as well.

    `People are disappointed, but their attitude has not changed. A vast
    mass of people are not venal and will vote to their conscience. Our
    prime goal should be prevention of fraud. We must fight using their
    methods. Either we will do it or we will quit politics.'

    Meanwhile, there will be rumors about fantastic and imaginary
    alliances, predicts Aram Sargsyan and adds, `we are living in an
    abnormal country where the decisions of the Constitutional Court are
    not enforced, the other three parties of the coalition did not say
    what made Orinats Yerkir give up its glorious status. But the public
    will demand explications as soon as such an opportunity arises.'
    According to Aram Sargsyan, the election of anew speaker, independent
    from the candidates, does not have a political role, `This is a stage
    of transition.' And generally, there is no coalition, `It is trade, no
    political problems are being solved.'
