Levon Zurabyan, member of the Armenian National Congress (ANC) would
with pleasure comment on the statement made by Armenia's ex-president
Robert Kocharyan "if it were a political one".
"But they were a hunter's words, we, in politics, do not understand,
as we are not in the habit of going on safaris," Zurabyan said. "I am
sorry, but this person remains a gasbag. Concrete, factual accusations
were brought against him, and he should have responded if he had
something to say," Zurabyan said.
NEWS.am reminds readers that, speaking at meeting of the ANC active
members on November 11, Ter-Petrosyan accused Robert Kocharyan and the
then Minister of Foreign Affairs Vartan Oskanian of having implemented
an ineffective foreign policy which weakened Armenia's positions on
the Nagorno-Karabakh and Armenia-Turkey normalization processes. He
also called for not laying the "sins" of Kocharyan's presidency on
the incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan.
Robert Kocharyan, in turn, called the accusations absurd. He told about
an experience he had in Africa: one of the hunters was constantly
remembering the bear as the strongest of the animals. "May be I am
a source of inspiration for Ter-Petrosyan, and it is the reason why
he remembers me so often," Robert Kocharyan said.
