The Armenian press has been recently writing much that Serzh Sargsyan
is trying to present an ultimatum to Gagik Tsarukyan forcing him a
new coalition memorandum reaffirming the commitment of the BHK leader
not to create obstacles for the Republicans.
As we know, Gagik Tsarukyan entered into this commitment with
the February 17 coalition memorandum. But one day before it, the
BHK leader gave a large interview in which he hinted about his
refusal of this commitment. The point is that Tsarukyan ambiguously
refused answering the question whom the BHK will support at the next
presidential elections, as well as he stated about the necessity to
form a larger ruling coalition noting that BHK pursues the goal of
unifying the larger coalition.
These statements evidently hinted that BHK was not going stay behind
the Republican Party and did not want to be the "forever second".
The Republican Party has been restrained in relation to these
statements, their opinions were not clear and concrete. Apparently,
this is the reason why those, who commented on this, who are not the
"figures" but the "soldiers" of the Republican Party, had no idea
of what was on the mind of the RP "figures" and especially the main
"figure" -Serzh Sargsyan.
"Figures" used to keep silent and the Chief "figure" was so busy with
foreign visits, receiving Sarkozy and getting ready for the meeting
with Putin. Completing all this, Serzh Sargsyan returned to Yerevan
and one day later we heard the Republican "figure" reactions to the
BHK intentions. I mean Tigran Sargsyan's briefing during of which
the Republican Prime Minister made quite rough and clear political
hints to the BHK.
There are two essential moments here. The first is that Tigran Sargsyan
actually threatened that if the BHK does not cooperation with the
RP and does not accept its leading position, then it will remain
with nothing. So, the Republican Party is trying to hint to Gagik
Tsarukyan that he does not need to think about becoming opposition
and forcing concessions to the Republican Party through blackmail.
But at the same time, it is not ruled out that the Republican Party,
seeing that Gagik Tsarukyan is uncompromising in his political
programs, is trying to blackmail him and threaten that they do not
need his support at all and RP programs for the next presidential
elections are not determined by the BHK position, and in the end,
the only one to be sorry, will be the Bargavach Hayastan Party.
The next essential moment here is of internal Republican significance,
though, of course also internal governmental and internal political,
in the sense that RP is the key subject in all these processes.
The point is that currently, at this interesting and responsible
internal governmental and internal political moment, the mission to
throw the ball into the BHK field was assigned to Tigran Sargsyan,
who perhaps for the first time made a concrete and addressed statement.
Probably, Serzh Sargsyan tried to underline Tigran Sargsyan's role
in the upcoming internal political processes and election developments.
