MINISTERS RESIGN
[08:41 pm] 27 May, 2008
-Ministers of the Dashnaktsutyun (Armenian
Revolutionary Federation) Party are going to resign in
a week's time-, declared ARF Bureau Representative
Hrant Margarian today. However, the grounds for
resignation are not political. The Ministers have been
elected ARF Bureau members and are going to resign to
be able to properly carry out their membership duties.
They will be substituted by other members of the
Dashnaktsutyun Party but the final resolution will be
made by the Dashnaktsutyun Supreme Board. In reply to
the question if the reason for resignation is not the
fact that the same people are always in power, Hrant
Margarian answered: -The decision was made by the
ministers themselves. It was their wish.-
At the meeting held in Tsakhkadzor on May 21-26 the
ARF Party made an announcement saying: -After the
Presidential Elections the Dashnaktsutyun Party could
assume the role of opposition but the post-election
events put the country's sovereignty and stability on
stake and the party members had to take the
responsibility to preserve them at any rate.-
On the other hand, it was stated in the announcement
that if the coalition government does not fulfill its
promises, the ARF will leave the coalition and become
opposition to be able to implement its plans out of
the government -without staking the country's security
and betraying its democratic, political and
ideological principles.-
However, the divergence in views between the ARF and
the Government has already revealed itself. The ARF
does not welcome Zhirayr Sefilian's deportation from
Armenia and Hrant Margarian himself informed Serzh
Sargssian about ARF's disagreement on the matter. The
party also believes that every Armenian must be a
citizen of the Armenian Republic and calls to the
Armenians all over the world to become RA citizens.
Concerning the 1 March events the ARF Board declared:
-We have never laid the blame on one side only.
Everyone is to blame for the situation.- Hrant
Margarian even blamed the aggressive mass media that
is ready to tear up any individual who has uttered any
reasonable word. He also blamed the intellectual and
asked them to freely express their views -without
further calculations-.
-We are a party that is willing to support the
country's security-, Hrant Margarian declared.
