Chairman of the Labor Party of Armenia, entrepreneur Gurgen Arsenyan
stated that Armenia's national initiatives have failed during the
past 300 years.
"To achieve success, Yerevan should present its interests in a state
format, as it's done by Ankara and Baku," he told reporters on April
8. "People's security should be a priority for Armenia."
Commenting on the Armenian-Turkish relations, he said these resemble
a minefield. "We should be extremely careful to prevent explosion
while the process of ratification of Protocols is going on both in
Armenia and Turkey," he said.
Dwelling on the domestic situation, Mr. Arsenyan said that the
authorities and opposition should demonstrate political will. "The
President should declare new amnesty and release people who were
arrested for their political views," he said, adding that his party
doesn't support the idea of extra elections in Armenia.
