YEREVAN, OCTOBER 27, NOYAN TAPAN. "On this day 10 years ago - on
October 27, one of the tragic, dark pages in the history of Armenia
was written. On that day the act of terrorism beheaded the statehood,
causing indescribable pain and grief to our people". Anahit Bakhshian
- member of "Heritage" faction, widow of the vice speaker of the
parliament Yuri Bakhshian who became a victim of the act of terrorism
committed in the hall of sittings at the parliament in 1999 - declared
this during the hour of statements at the RA National Assembly.
In her words, the statehood was shot on that day, and the aim of that
execution was also to kill the hope in our people and their will to
struggle, and to create an atmosphere of fear and servility in the
country. "The act of terrorism was perfectly used by the president
Kocharian for ruling the country by the authoritarian principles.
Since the years of his presidency, the state institutions have been
turned into an appendage and any competition or alternative has been
ruled out," she said. A. Bakhshian also expressed an opinion that
the October 27 act of terrorism has considerably weakened Armenia's
positions in the negotiations on the Karabakh conflict settlement.
