A person who came to power as a result of March 1 events, does not
have any moral right to sign an agreement on longer-term Russian
military presence in Armenia, the Leader of the Republic Party Aram
Sargsyan stated at the ANC-held rally in Yerevan on September 17.
Referring to the moral, political and economic aspects of the
agreement, Sargsyan said: `Psychologically, it testifies to the
authorities' lacking confidence and fear. Politically, the authorities
consented to agree their interests till 2044 and, in some cases, to
subordinate our interests to those of the Russian side. They want the
Government to be formed not by the Armenian nation's decision, but
through the Russian Federation's mediation. In economic terms, we
support the establishment of equal, partner relations with all the
countries, including Russia,' Sargsyan said.
According to him, the key to the Karabakh conflict is the
establishment of a democratic system.
Sargsyan also referred to the Youtube video, where an officer
humiliates and beats up an Armenian soldier. `We saw such kind of
people on April 12, 2004 and on March 1, who attacked innocent people
and shot at them. This kind of persons kills people at the
Charentsavan police department. Armenia may not have future as long
as this kind of persons exists,' he said.
