BAGHDASAROV IS LOYAL TO SERGE SARGSYAN
Lragir, Armenia
Nov 8 2006
In almost every country in the world rich businessmen back one
government official or another, and Armenia, which is building
capitalism, cannot be an exception. Mikhail Baghdasarov, one of the
big businessmen of Armenia stated this idea on November 7, the day
of the Bolshevist revolution.
"Capitalism supposes that big businessmen, as well as all the
ordinary voters have their opinion and support someone. For instance,
from America to Angola, there are big companies which support the
government, the president. This is widely known," says Baghdasarov.
Also it is known that Mikhail Baghdasarov's name is directly related
to Serge Sargsyan's name. Therefore, the society wants to know what
Mikhail Baghdasarov and generally all the businessmen surrounding
the defense minister would be doing if Serge Sargsyan suddenly has
to quit power.
"You should ask those people. You are asking me instead of everyone.
I can say that there were cases when Serge Sargsyan was having hard
times, and we stayed as we were. There is a certain group who first
support one, then they support the other. Everyone has their policy,
some people are loyal to someone, others go to the one who is standing
in the sun," says Mikhail Baghdasarov. In this case it is interesting
why this businessman, who is so close to Serge Sargsyan, did not
enter the Republican Party with the defense minister in July 2006.
"First of all, every businessman has their opinion. Some people want
to become engaged in politics, I have stated for a number of times
that I do not want to be in politics," says Mikhail Baghdasarov. He
says he is a citizen of Russia and could not join the Republican
Party. Besides, Mikhail Baghdasarov has another reason not to become
engaged in politics. The reason is that in 2003 he became engaged in
politics. Mikhail Baghdasarov, who is a citizen of Russia, supported
the Union of Women of Armenia. This union got 2.5 percent votes
in the election of 2003. Baghdasarov was disappointed. Not about
2.5 percent but that an unknown party, the unknown members of this
political party, the Women of Armenia, got so many votes. This helped
Baghdasarov understand the political sphere of Armenia and made him
decide not to take part in the processes of this sphere where unknown
women can get a rating equal to that of well-known male figures.
"In the previous election I understood what Armenian politics is.
With a weak team we got 2.7 percent and I understood what it is. At
the same time, I saw what our women are like, and I decided that
our women will hardly enter the Armenian parliament and therefore I
disagree with them, those men," says Mikhail Baghdasarov.
Baghdasarov says in the previous election they supported a political
force, understood the situation and now they think that no force
needs their support.
