ARFD should still gain the right of being a real opposition. Armenian
National Congress representative Levon Zurabian expressed such an
opinion at the April 28 press conference adding that a statement
on coming out of the ruling coalition is not enough for becoming
an opposition.
"We have not noticed yet ARFD's coming out of the power. However I
assess their step as the first sign of this regime's being not viable,"
he said. And if ARFD indeed chooses the way of becoming opposition of
principle, L. Zurabian did not exclude that ANC can cooperate with it.
Touching upon the joint Armenian-Turkish statement, "road map,"
L. Zurabian said that according to information received from a reliable
diplomatic source, the issue of establishing a commission of historians
is also fixed in that document. L. Zurabian said that ANC has applied
to the respective bodies to find out the details of the "road map,"
but has received no response so far. And that silence, according to
him, gives an occasion for serious doubts.
