YEREVAN, APRIL 10, NOYAN TAPAN. After the assumption of power by the
president elect, an opportunity has opened to take real steps for
overcoming the internal political crisis. Otherwise the authorities
may face a deeper crisis than the deadlock reached by the political
opposition, secretary of the NA "Heritage" faction Stepan Safarian
said on April 10.
In his words, the political forces to have assumed responsibility for
the country should be aware that it is for them to initiate steps
aimed at getting out of the current situation. S. Safarian pointed
out that no step to resolve the current crisis has been taken so far.
Accoriding to him, although a tradition exists to wait for results
of 100 days of the new president' tenure, there are some issues whose
solution would take only 10 days. First of all, these are the issues
of ensuring human rights in the country and immediate release of the
political prisoners.
In connection with appointment of the CBA chairman Tigran Sargsian as
prime minister, S. Safarian expressed concern that the country will
once again have a government of "irresponsibility". He said that the
newly appointed prime minister is not a member of any political team,
and he is not "so strong a person in Armenian sense" that he will be
able to oblige the forces forming the authorities to be responsible.
S. Sagarian informed those present that the day before all the members
of "Heritage" faction met with the families of the men killed on March
1, after which they went to Monument to Myasnikian to pay tribute to
those killed and attend the requiem liturgy.
In connection with participation of the faction leader Raffi
Hovannsisian in Serge Sargsian's inauguration ceremony, the
representative of "Heritage" said that this fact does not mean and
symbolize anything.
