Levon Zurabyan Responds to Minasyan Who Responds to Ter-Petrossian's
Last Speech
16:21 ¢ 13.11.09
`The thief is the one who first says `Catch him, he's a thief!',' was
Levon Zurabyan's response to Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF-D,
or Dashnaktsutyun) member Artsvik Minasyan's reference today to Levon
Ter-Petrossian's last speech.
Referring to the first president's speech at a press conference today,
Minasyan characterized it as a bargain offer to the governing
authorities.
With this statement, Minasyan had responded to the speech the first
president made recently, where, among other questions, Ter-Petrossian
referred to the ARF-D's anti-Turkish policy.
The first president had particularly said: `It's completely
incomprehensible, for example, what right does Dashnaktsutyun have to
complain against the current Armenia-Turkey borders, when it was that
party who defined those borders by the Treaty of Alexandropol? How can
they demand Turkey to recognize the Armenian people's historic rights,
when by that very pact it resigned from the Treaty of Sevres?'
