PRESIDENT'S SPEECHMAKERS DON'T KNOW THEIR AUDIENCE: TIGRAN TOROSYAN

14:52 ~U 15.02.10
"Those who write the [Armenian] president's speeches, unfortunately,
picture neither their audience nor the issues," said former National
Assembly Speaker Tigran Torosyan at a press conference today, referring
to Serzh Sargsyan's speech in London.
"Neither the content of that speech nor its structure corresponded
to that audience, for which it was tailored," said Torosyan.
In his words, even the title of that speech did not match its content.
"A speech with such a title must have by all means touched upon the
new situation, created in our region after the 2008 Russo-Georgian
war, and the new roles the South Caucasus countries assumed [after
the war]," said Torosyan.
According to Torosyan, Sargsyan sounded like a Soviet leader when he
referred to Armenian-British relations in his speech.
"In that part, he only touched upon Great Britain's position on the
Armenian Genocide," explained Torosyan.
According to him, Sargsyan should have referred to two principles
while speaking about the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict: territorial
integrity and the right to self-determination of nations.
"He should've noted how they [principles] would be implemented
specifically and what results they will bring. Unfortunately, such
statements weren't made," said Torosyan, adding that only vague
statements for a professional audience in London were made.
