Ruling coalition's initiative on removal of Protocols' ratification
from the National Assembly agenda is pointless from foreign policy
viewpoint, being targeted at domestic constituency, People's party
leader Tigran Karapetyan told NEWS.am.
According to him, by this move authorities attempted to outrun the
opposition unified against the Protocols, that also made a statement
today.
New Times party leader Aram Karapetyan stated that ruling coalitions'
initiative to suspend the Protocols' ratification was agreed with
world community, as presently foreign actors put emphasis on Karabakh
peace process, not Armenia-Turkey reconciliation.
"Presently, the most topical issue is return of Fizuli and Agdam
regions controlled by Armenian side. Thereafter, Armenia-Turkey process
and Karabakh conflict settlement will have a go-ahead of a different
angle," Karapetyan said, adding that meeting with OSCE Minsk Group
Co-Chairs is not a mere coincidence.
He also noted that coalition's statement is an attempt to save face,
as political forces realized the process was deadlocked and they can
not be silent on the threshold of April 24.
"There is no logical explanation on what Armenian President expected
from the reconciliation process, but it is clear that border is closed
and no progress is registered," party leader added, saying the only
way out is the change of power.
Today ruling coalition issued a statement, offering to remove
Protocols' ratification from the RA National Assembly agenda.
