YEREVAN, DECEMBER 1, NOYAN TAPAN. Today it is not late yet to suspend
the process of Armenia-Turkey rapprochement and to do it the Armenian
authorities should first of all renounce their policy of leading the
people into error. ARFD Armenian Supreme Body representative Armen
Rustamian stated at a December 1 meeting of forces that consolidated
against the Armenian-Turkish protocols.
According to him, pro-governmental media's one-sided information
formed an impression among the people that nothing bad takes place,
only a border is opened, relations are established. "When we visit
the regions and explain to people what dangers the protocols pose
they already begin to worry," A. Rustamian said. In his words, if the
National Assembly ratifies the protocols, ARFD will struggle for them
to be invalidated after all. And for that, according to A. Rustamian,
the authorities should resign.
According to NA Zharangutiun (Heritage) faction head Stepan Safarian,
"an attempt is made at present to link the schedule of concessions
expected from the Armenian side in the Nagorno Karabakh issue with
the ratification of the protocols." He also said that the forces
speaking against those protocols do not have so much possibilities
to prevent their ratification. Therefore, as S. Safarian declared,
Zharangutiun desires appearance of the issue of changing the power
system on the agenda of each of the mentioned forces.
NA ARFD faction member Artsvik Minasian, Chairman of the Democratic
Party of Armenia Aram Sargsian, Chairwoman of the Motherland party
Karine Tumanian, Chairman of the Ramkavar-Azatakan Party of Armenia
Haroutiun Arakelian, and others also spoke at the meeting.
A statement was adopted at the meeting, which, in particular, read:
"The negotiations stage had a poor end, and an intra-state process
of signing the protocols started. Henceforth the prevention of a
final ratification of these anti-national and anti-state documents
is within the jurisdiction of the Constitutional Court and NA."
