President Serzh Sargsyan's pan-Armenian tour has from the very
beginning been a show, without any purpose of coming to terms on the
Armenian-Turkish protocols with the Armenian Diaspora. From this point
of view, the President has achieved his aim - Armenian TV channels
provided wide coverage of his visits "to his best advantage," Armen
Martirosyan, Board Chairman, Heritage Party, told NEWS.am.
"I am sure that, despite the opinion voiced by the Diaspora and
by the Armenian people as a whole, the Armenian-Turkish protocols
will eventually be signed," Martirosyan said. He stressed that
the 12 parties will continue their cooperation in opposing the
Armenian-Turkish protocols. "I do not think it is a new political
alliance, but -" Martirosyan said. He expressed a wish that the
Armenian National Congress (ANC) joins the 12.
Martirosyan voiced concern that the protocols, if signed, will drive
a wedge between Armenia and the Armenian Diaspora. "Unfortunately,
this process is under way, and some of President Sargsyan's
incautious statements concerning the Diaspora are only exacerbating
the situation. Many of Armenia's achievements are the result of
its cooperation with the Diaspora, aren't they? The Diaspora also
made a great contribution to the struggle for Nagorno-Karabakh,"
Martirosyan said.
