Interview with NA RP faction head, RP deputy chair Galust Sahakyan
In his interview to Mediamax, Robert Kocharyan criticized the economic
policy led by Tigran Sargsyan. Why is Robert Kocharyan making such
statements?
I would like to note, that when there was economic progress during
Robert Kocharyan's tenure, we were the most powerful force to support
it. As to the criticism of the government, the opposition has always
criticized it and we responded. I have to say that Armenians and
Armenia will no longer have black days.
Is Kocharyan not trying to come back to politics and assume the office
of prime minister, as press writes, criticizing the economic policy
of the acting premier?
For a team opinion, we need to discuss the issue. But I can say
my personal opinion: assessments will be different if I see Robert
Kocharyan's statement as one of a member of our team, from the one
of a person who just expresses worry.
Were his statements accidental?
I did not go into details. Perhaps, a field was formed for him to
issue such a statement.
What RP reaction will be if he decides to return into politics and
become prime minister?
It is not within my authorities, it is not a problem to discuss.
However, will you support it?
We assess the years of Kocharyan's tenure as positive, in which we
also took part. The appointment to premier is not connected with only
the person but also discussions.
RP Deputy Chair Razmik Zohrabyan recalled lately that the party and
the ruling coalition have enough force to lead the country, so they
do not need new people.
Of course we have serious candidates. Ideas to change the premier
will arouse only when there is need to change the government. Such
an issue is not discussed at all now.
What do you think about an internal revolution?
It is impossible, there is no such a political situation. Such a
thing could happen if the situation is like the one during Levon
Ter-Petrosyan's tenure.
Robert Kocharyan comes out to have presented an application for
returning to politics and being appointed to prime minister's office.
It is difficult. It is not even polite as Serge Sargsyan is not
in the country now and such an opinion is issued. In order to give
assessments we need to find out whether Kocharyan speaks as a team
members or as a second president who is worried.
You think it is impolite of Robert Kocharyan to issue such statements
in absence of Serge Sargsyan. They come out to have serious
disagreements.
I cannot say and no one can say these disagreements are formed. For
me, disagreements are unbelievable.
