THE POLITICAL DIVERSION OF THE POODLE

According to our information during the recent times in the framework
of the congress the situation has exacerbated with the leader of
the Marxists Davit Hakobyan. We should remind you that the Marxist
called Davit Shahnazaryan who has recently returned from the USA
"a pro-American poodle". So isn't D. Hakobyan right.
It is not a secret that the activists of our radical opposition mainly
travel to the USA.
The role of the USA is so important in the modern world that the
pro-Armenian settlement of Karabakh conflict, the raising of Armenia's
foreign blockade and the future development of our economy depend on
its stance.
Consequently no matter what goal our political figures pursue during
their visits to the USA, they must take into account the fact that
they represent Armenia and Armenian interests. And the difference
between the interests of the opposition and the ruling power is not
very essential.
The most important thing is whether or not these visits will create
a complete picture about Armenia's political field, meanwhile not to
harm our country's positive image, by spreading misinformation.
It is not a secret that the visits of the same Davit Shahnazaryan
or the "pro-American poodle" to the USA have always been aimed at
spreading misin formation. It is difficult to say exactly what genius
ideas he has expressed during his recent visits but for example three
years back in the authorized centers elaborating the US's foreign
policy he used to announce: "Armenia's ruling power is the Russian
political gate in the region."
Thus the poodle automatically disposes American authorities against our
country. Independent of whether or not American political scientists
trust their words the before mentioned standpoint turns into a matter
of a serious discussion and a necessary subject to elaborate relevant
policy. This can serve as an argument for the USA to refuse this or
that type of assistance shown to Armenia.
Unfortunately during those three years Davit Shahnazaryan didn't give
any reason for the public to think that he has become cleverer. On
the contrary. So it is possible to presume what type of announcements
he could have made.
For example he would have definitely tried to restrict the policy
pursued by Armenia in the region "In the framework of the Kremlin's
interests."
It is his style and it is not the first case. Whereas it is evident
that in the conditions of the noticed confrontation in Russian-American
relations linked with the South Caucasian developments, the desire
of the USA to pursue a pro-Azerbaijani policy will intensify.
Pay attention on the fact that although the same Azerbaijani
pro-oppositional figures try to dispose the USA against Ilham Aliev's
administration, you will never hear any announcements that violate
the interests of the state or any attempts to reveal Azerbaijan's
relations with Moscow and Tehran.
In this issue they have always managed to differentiate their party
interests from that of the state, which we Armenians lack.
Whereas the responsibility of the opposition towards the state and
its future presumes not only criticizing the ruling power but also
perception of political processes in the prism of the state values.
There can be different attitudes towards Davit Hakobyan, but his
characteristic "pro-American poodle" is really to the point.
Unfortunately there are all the bases to presume that in the near
future the visits of the poodles to the USA will not be limited to
the meetings of the pro-oppositional political figures, but rather
political diversions against the comprehensive state interests.
