When in the coalition, Dashnaktsutyun has had disagreements. As long
as they were behind the curtains, the coalition parties could find
solutions through disputes. But when steps leading to disagreements
in national issues and poise threats are taken, those disagreements
become insurmountable. This is why Dashnaktsutyun made a decision to
act as opposition.
Speaking at April 27 news conference, ARF Supreme Body of Armenia
representative Armen Rustamian said that the difference in the
Armenian-Turkish relations led to serious disagreements with the
coalition.
"Turkey's obligation to open the border is an international one. Turkey
has to open the border and should not make it a right, moreover,
a tool to pressure Armenia for concessions," Rustamian said. "The
second issue is the Genocide. We should realize that the Genocide
recognition should be carried out in two directions: the international
recognition and the recognition by Turkey."
On April 25, ARF Bureau representative Hrant Margarian and ARF Supreme
Body of Armenia representative Armen Rustamian met with Armenian
President Serzh Sargsian to present the ARF position. Rustamian said
that during the recent meeting with the president different positions
were voiced.
