In the past three years, different forces on the political arena
have been finding faults with the Armenian National Congress (ANC),
a senior representative of the opposition alliance has said.
Speaking at the ANC's rally on August 2, Arman Grigoryan, an ANC
representative to the Council of Europe (CoE) and a coordinator of
the ANC's representations in the United States, said the alliance
has been accused of seizing power or failing to do so and backing the
authorities efforts towards the normalization of Armenia-Turkey ties
or being inactive in the process.
He noted further that there is the opposite side of the coin which
is no less dangerous.
"Those who condemn us say the ANC's tactics is a utopist hope because
the regime which gunned down people will not agree to snap elections
and even if it does, such elections will not be fair and transparent,"
he said.
Speaking of big geopolitical concessions that may result from the
current dialogue, Grigoryan said governments often oppose a deal for
a dialogue as was the case with Yemen, Romania, Bahrain and Egypt. He
noted that the authorities may accept or reject a proposal for holding
a dialogue depending on the people's dissatisfaction and the degree
of rage.
"I don't know a government that has ever been able to torpedo the
people. In case of resorting to violence again, they will face a lagrer
burden of responsibility than they did after the the March 1 events,"
he said.
