The Democratic Party of Armenia (HDK) at the head of Aram G. Sarkissian
has released a statement which says in part,
"We are confident that the political crisis in the country is caused
not by ideological debates over socio-economic, political, legal
issues but by some people's overweening ambition to come to power.
As a result, most people have become aliens. The society is divided
into protesters and people doing their utmost to protect their fortune
amassed through illegal means. The logical outcome of the events
were profound hatred and intolerance instilled among people. People
standing in the background made use of the situation with their
"devilish skills." The pre- and post-election periods accompanied with
innocent victims and tragic outcome imply taking the following steps,
uncover and give legal assessment to real wrongdoers on legal
grounds. The initiators, provocateurs, key participants as well as
high-rank officials engaged in the occurrences must stand trial. They
were to avert the tragic events of March 1, exclude injustice,
falsifications and partiality.
Public demands to launch an impartial and convincing investigation
over the March 1 events and disclose the armed people who opened fire
at the participants and law-enforcement bodies.
The delay of the investigation gives rise to rumours and intensifies
the heated atmosphere. On the other hand, there are political figures
among the detainees whose crime hasn't been proved over the past
three months.
We believe that the authorities will be able to take drastic steps
to overcome the crisis in case they are filled with willingness and
determination to rectify former mistakes.
The HDK is ready to help direct the country onto the right and safe
path if the gap between the past and the present still deepens,"
holds the HDK statement.
