'100 STEPS' IS THEORETICAL: RAZMIK ZOHRABYAN ON OPPOSITION'S PROGRAM FOR REFORM
Tert.am

Republican Party of Armenia (HHK) has not held a special discussion
on '100 Steps,' a program authored by former RA prime minister Hrant
Bagratyan, said HHK Deputy Chair Razmik Zohrabyan at a press conference
today, adding that he had, however, flipped through the document.
Zohrabyan said the program prepared by the opposition is a theoretical
one.
"At first glance, the program seems to be normal, but you cannot say
anything [sure] unless you put it into practice ... As soon as they
[Armenian National Congress] assume leadership - I don't know when
that'll happen - they can implement their program," said Zohrabyan.
Asked whether he thought it possible that the opposition might return
to power, he said: "In a democratic country every political power
that gets public backing assumes authority. It is not excluded that
they can return to power. Elections are expected in two years, let
them try and we will see [what happens]," said Zohrabyan.
He also commented on a statement by the Armenian National Congress
on early elections, saying if the ANC wants to come into the
constitutional field it must do so through constitutional means.
Zohrabyan also said that there aren't any threats to the Constitution.
On the other hand, according to Zohrabyan, the opposition has started
preparing for not extraordinary, but simply the next elections.
