By permitting to hold the June 20 rally near Matenadaran, the Police
failed opposition's intention to instigate collisions in the center of
the city. Galust Sahakian, the Vice-Chairman of the Republican Party
of Armenia (RPA), a member of the RA National Assembly RPA faction,
expressed such an opinion during the June 26 press conference.
"Levon Ter-Petrosian will leave in the future keeping his respect and
will yield to more constructive opposition. Certainly, I am for it,
but we will see whether society will accept it or not," G. Sahakian
said. Touching upon the first President's June 20 statement that he
will be the last person to leave big politics and leave Armenia,
G. Sahakian mentioned: "As the Council of Europe recorded during
its June 25 discussions that the opposition does not take part in
the reforms carried out in the country, it means that the Council
of Europe does not perceive L. Ter-Petrosian as a person having
opposition views."
He also touched upon the information in press that the Co-reporters
of PACE Monitoring Commission have estimated Armenian authorities'
work in the direction of fulfilment of Resolution N 1609 as
unsatisfactory. Indeed, according to G. Sahakian, "it is more than
clear that the word "unsatisfactory" is not used in the practice of
the whole international community, therefore, as regards Resolution
N 1609, they estimated its fulfilment as not satisfactory."
As for Zharangutiun (Heritage) party leader, member of the Armenian
delegation in PACE Raffi Hovannisian's coming out of the delegation,
according to the RPA figure, "that was one more attempt aimed at
keeping oppositionist's image."
