Today there is no man in Armenia who believes that formation of the
legitimate power via the elections is possible, Director of Armenian
Centre for National and International Studies [ACNIS], Manvel Sargsyan,
said over today's discussion in ACNIS.
The next parliamentary election will be held in Armenia in 2012 and
the presidential ones in 2013.
"It is clear to everybody, and everybody confess it, including the
authorities. In the conditions of impossibility of holding of free
and normal elections, absence of free judges and courts, the activity
of the political parties in the republic loses sense. For this reason,
we may make conclusion that the politicized part of our society follows
the political parties only with one purpose - to take personally for
themselves as many dividends as possible", - he said.
In this context, the sense of activity of the political parties in
Armenia is to provide the negotiating process with the authorities with
a purpose to have a place under the sun, he said and added that nobody
in Armenia believes it is possible to reach political goals through the
political ways. Sargsyan emphasized that two factors unite all these
parties: the attempts to find sponsors in abroad and the attempts to
involve wide layers of society in their plans. "It is done only with a
goal to force the authorities to display adaptableness when negotiating
with these groups of people. So, all this activity has nothing in
common with the interests of the society", - Sargsyan concluded.
