THE NATIONAL SECURITY SERVICE IS NOT GORIK HAKOBYAN

The news that a National Security Service [NSS] employee was
identified and exposed while engaged in acts ofprovocation (calling
for the violent overthrow of the regime) on Freedom Square [where
supporters of former PresidentLevon Ter-Petrosyan were rallying]
seemed improbable to us and we thought that this could have been the
independentactivity of a certain local boss close to the authorities.
However, we were astonished by a statement issued by the NSS press
service. The NSS confirmed that the person who wasengaged in acts of
provocation among thousands of people was an NSS staff officer.
We know that special services carry out this sort of work among
bandit groups. But no special service in the worldwould target its
own people in acts of provocation that bear the characteristics of
the gravest crimes punishable under the Criminal Code. It turns out
that the head of the NSS, Gorik Hakobyan, considers the people who
have gathered onFreedom Square to be enemies or opponents.
People who know him well can confirm that Gorik Hakobyan, who has
attained his current status due to his servilityand insidiousness,
is ready to sacrifice even his nearest and dearest in order to please
his masters, let alone a young NSS officer whose exposure was just a
matter of time (after all, he was born, raised and educated in this
city, and heworks and has friends and acquaintances here). This means
that he was sacrificed deliberately.
We know that operative measures or selection of an option are justified
by the results to be gained. We will try toopen the brackets with the
help of a small analysis. If the calls for a violent seizure of power
had been heeded, some(or all) of the people gathered on Freedom Square,
incited by the unbridled illegal actions of the authorities(arbitrary
arrests, abductions, torture, searches, immoral state propaganda,
etc), would become uncontrollable andinitiate mass turmoil, undoubtedly
resulting in casualties, injuries, destruction, etc.
As you can see, the means are equal to the end (that is defaming a
peaceful movement, violently settling accountswith the movement's
participants, and prosecuting its leaders).
This is not how the NSS works. It is how Gorik Hakobyan works, a
person who not long ago would grovel before [former NSS chiefs] Davit
Shahnazaryan and Gurgen Yeghiazaryan, but who today is ready to tear
them apart. Make no mistake,today's prime minister [president-elect
Serzh Sargsyan] will meet the same fate tomorrow.
No-one shares Hakobyan's working style at the NSS. As you see,
he has to give personal orders [bypassing thechain-of-command] for
implementation of the sad measure we have learned about. Being aware
of his mental abilities, toput it more correctly - his stupidity,
we emphasize that with this act of provocation, he is deliberately
deepening the gap between the people and the NSS.
We say a resolute "no" to Gorik Hakobyan, and announce that the
NSS is not Gorik Hakobyan, and the mainthing to understand is one
important formula - any operative measure should be aimed not at
further inflaming thesituation but at moderating it.
We announce with full responsibility that the NSS must stand by the
people's side. And if this sort of thingrecurs, we will resort to
decisive actions.
After this incident, a number of NSS veterans have decided not only
to join the pan-national movement[Ter-Petrosyan's supporters] but also
to uncover and prevent other provocative actions of a similar nature,
whichmay be born in Gagik Hakobyan's shabby mind.
