    POLITICAL TOURISM

    Many of those who are following Serge Sargsyan's so-called pan-Armenian
    tour, surprise at seeing the former NKR president Arkadi Ghukasyan
    accompanying him in his tour. Those who get suspired have to be asked
    near who they expected to see Arkadi Ghukasyan. These people are
    likely to answer that Ghukasyan had to be near his compatriots from
    Karabakh, live with them as the former president. But we understand,
    Arkadi Ghukasyan, even being in tenure in Karabakh, did not live among
    his compatriots even then, but he was 12 months a years in different
    trips. How can we expect from him that after leaving his post of
    president he would stay in Karabakh? If there was such a danger,
    perhaps he would not leave his post.

    In addition, Arkadi Ghukasyan is the Armenian Ambassador with Special
    Assignments. So, he is fulfilling a special assignment near Serge
    Sargsyan: listens who said what and how looked at Serge Sargsyan,
    makes notes, and after shares with his impressions with Serge
    Sargsyan. Since, Serge Sargsyan, holding a speech, is unable to
    speak and to make notes of his surrounding at the same time. Arkadi
    Ghukasyan is not traveling with Serge Sargsyan just for pleasure. This
    does not mean that traveling with Serge Sargsyan is disgusting for
    Arkadi Ghukasyan. Of course, it is pleasurable. But he is on work,
    and that work is the reason of the trip.

    In general, from this point Arkadi Ghukasyan is a Special Ambassador
    and a particular tourist. He is traveling for work. The result,
    as a rule, is never seen, but it is not Ghukasyan's fault. One has
    to be blind not to see how his foreign trips promoted for example
    the process of the recognition of the Karabakh independence. Sure,
    Nicaragua and Venezuela have not yet recognized Karabakh, but it is
    determined by the fact that the process was put forward and as to
    more important countries, the process has not yet reached them. One
    should only observe that Ghukasyan does not promote the process so
    much to be found out in the end that he registered not the reaction
    of the Armenian Diaspora in connection with the Armenia and Turkish
    issue near Sargsyan, but say, the impressions of the member of the
    commission of historian after its first session.
