DOES KOCHARYAN NEED THE TRUST OF THE CRIMINAL OR THE SOCIETY?

It was apparent that the August 30 news conference of the speaker of
Robert Kocharyan was the result of fine calculations. It is almost
beyond doubt that on his birthday Robert Kocharyan wanted to become
the hero of the press, not only to be spoken about but also to speak
about the process underway in the country. And though his words would
be mediated, nevertheless they would be perceived as Robert
Kocharyan's. Why did they prefer press? Because for the major part of
the political sphere of Armenia it is perhaps the only available
media. Available in terms of not only finance but also cognition. They
do not watch TV because in restaurants the band does not allow hearing
anything, and they are technically and genetically incompatible with
the web. Therefore, it was clear to the president that only the
newspapers are accessible for the most part of the political sphere he
would like to communicate.
Speaking about active politics on his birthday, the president in fact
wanted to show to the government community that even his birthday
cannot take his attention from the political affairs of the country
and distract him from the governmental and home political
processes. In other words, his finger is constantly on the pulse of
the process, in other words he is still the president of the
country. It means Robert Kocharyan feels he should confirm this fact.
For its part, this means that the president is worried by the
developments underway in the political sphere. And if he wants to
emphasize that he is the one who may approve or disapprove all this,
it means he feels that maybe most people think otherwise. Perhaps this
is the reason why the speaker of the president acted without Serge
Sargsyan's instruction.
The anxiety of the president might be determined by two circumstances.
Either he is concerned that the society may start viewing him as an
observer or he thinks that the branches of power may view him as an
observer. The circumstance of the society is unlikely because over the
eight years of his office Robert Kocharyan has never showed that the
public opinion about him interests him. Consequently, the anxiety of
the president is connected with the government circles, who are
hearing increasingly more forecasts and recommendations, and if Serge
Sargsyan does not launch an offensive for power until January, after
January he may no longer believe in the New Year miracle. And the
president does not have any guarantees that Serge Sargsyan will not
believe such forecasts and will not decide to give himself a New Year
gift. And what isthe most horrible thing, the people surrounding him
may decide to give a New Year present to the `grand master'.
Announcing that there are no controversies between Serge Sargsyan and
him, and there are no controversies between Bargavach Hayastan Party
and the Republican Party, the president is most probably temporizing,
until January.
Perhaps he also came to believe that Serge Sargsyan is able until
January and will be unable after January. And in order to instill
trust in unity in the governmental environment Robert Kocharyan
demands facts on the existence of the criminal, in other words, it
wants to convey to the same criminal` one for all and all for one.
Will the criminal believe Kocharyan, however? And most importantly,
will Serge Sargsyan believe the statement that he does not have
controversies with Robert Kocharyan?
However, perhaps, this is not essential. The essential thing is that
by temporizing the president is wasting time, moving in the wrong
direction. It appeared that at least at the end of the second term
Robert Kocharyan would quit in accordance with the law, seeking the
belief of the public, not that of the criminal. To assure that at
least by the end of his office he was ready to make definite efforts
to reform the system of governance. He should have tried to make the
public believe in him, of course, if he is likely to continue living
in this country and participate in its public and political life.
Meanwhile, the president is wasting all his opportunities to cultivate
belief in his actions. And if the same criminal believes him, believes
and does not attack until January, it will be not only the result of
accepting and believing but also not considering him to be a serious
obstacle.
