YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 21, NOYAN TAPAN. "I think the people, who
created the March 1 situation, who wanted to seize the power by
the non-constitutional way, had snipers, if there were such." Galust
Sahakian, the head of the RA NA RPA faction, stated at the November 21
press conference commenting upon the recording spread by the opposition
on November 20, according to which faction Secretary Samvel Nikoyan
confirms that the Police used a sniper on March 1.
According to G. Sahakian, it was not beneficial for the authorities
to use snipers during the March 1 events: the authorities called for
consolidation, and some people tried to settle some issues inside the
country. He affirmed that the March 1 events were ruled by foreign
forces, which wanted to see Armenia as a semi-state.
Touching upon temporary stopping of opposition rallies, G. Sahakian
said that this decision of the opposition is positive for supporting
the authorities in the issue of negotiations over the Nagorno Karabakh
settlement. According to him, opposition's silence also means that
the latters agree to the approach adopted by the authorities over
the problem settlement. "The authorities were able to present to
the international community that irrespective of anything everybody
holds the same opinion over the Nagorno Karabakh problem in Armenia,"
G. Sahakian said.
