"President's speech made a reference to the internal political
situation in Armenia, the ways of development, as well as Armenia's
position on a number of important issues of international relations,"
head of the Armenian delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the
Council of Europe David Harutyunyan said.
"The primary issues to be raised here included Karabakh and the
Armenian-Turkish relations, and I think the President gave a clear
assessment to all issues both in his speech and during his meetings in
Strasbourg," David Harutyunyan said, adding that the speech marks the
start of a new stage, since new elections are expected in our country.
"The President's position clearly demonstrates how much we emphasize
the proper conduct of the next elections and the establishment of an
appropriate atmosphere in Armenia, without which the development of
the country is practically impossible," he said.
"Detailed reference to the Karabakh conflict and the positions of
the parties was correct ahead of the meeting in Kazan," member of
the Armenian delegating to PACE, representative of the ARF faction
Armen Rustamyan said.
According to him, it was important to present the differences of
position of the conflicting parties from that high podium. "There was
a clear message in the President's speech that we stand for peace and
we are in no way interested in the resumption of war in the region,
while Azerbaijan has the opposition stance."
Touching upon the question on snap elections Zaruh Postanjyan addressed
to President Sargsyan, Armen Rustamyan said "it was positive for
Armenia's image."
"For example, if someone demands the President's resignation in
Azerbaijan, he may appear in jail the next day, even if he writes it
in a blog without addressing the question directly," Rustamyan said.
