The Russian leadership has a bad attitude toward Armenian President
Serzh Sargsyan. It is not ashamed to show this attitude, Director
of the Center of Political Innovations and Technologies, political
scientist Mubariz Ahmedoglu said at a briefing held at Trend news
agency today.
Ahmedoglu said that Artur Chilingarov, popular scholar of Armenian
descent, having no political influence in Russia, was sent to the
party congress, chaired by President Sargsyan.
At the congress Russia was represented by deputy speaker of the State
Duma, deputy chairman of the "United Russia" party Sergei Neverov at
the "Prosperous Armenia" party congress, Ahmedoglu added.
"Despite the fact that President Sargsyan participated at the summit of
the Eurasian Economic Union for two days, he was received by neither
Dmitry Medvedev nor Vladimir Putin," Ahmedoglu stressed.
"Putin received ex-President Robert Kocharian 3 - 4 days before Serzh
Sargsyan's visit to Moscow. Putin's press-service reported about this."
Referring to the upcoming parliamentary elections in Armenia, Ahmedoglu
stressed that the struggle could go under the three scenarios during
the elections.
Ahmedoglu said that Sargsyan is the author of the first scenario.
"Holding a show called "democratic elections", he wants to gather
right people in the parliament," Ahmedoglu stressed. "About 2.450
million voters were registered in Armenia with a population of 2.845
million people. This is absurd. There are at least 700,000 people
more in the voters' lists. Nobody wants to specify these lists."
"Making to adopt a law on a state of emergency, Sargsyan shows
that the event, similar to that one on March 1, 2008, may happen,"
Ahmedoglu said.
"The following example shows Sargsyan's best intentions to rig the
elections," he said.
"Referring to the absence of Khachatur Sukiasyan, well-known oligarch,
former MP, a member of the Karabakh war because of the events that
occurred on March 1, 2008, the Armenian police gave out a certificate
of his non-residence in Armenia for five years.
"The second scenario belongs to the U.S," Ahmedoglu said.
"The U.S. wants Sargsyan's party to win the parliamentary elections
and tries to implement them in a form corresponding to democracy,"
Ahmedoglu said. "They try to shut their eyes to some fraud."
Ahmedoglu stressed that the third scenario was prepared by Russia.
He added that Russia supports Sargsyan's fiasco at the parliamentary
elections in Armenia.
"Russia is interested in the victory of "Prosperous Armenia" in the
face of the multimillionaire, the member of the ruling coalition
Gagik Charukyan," Ahmedoglu said.
"His name is indicated as the chairman of ex-President Kocharian's
party. Javakhetia, associated with the Russian special services,
calls for Armenians to vote for the Prosperous Armenia party."
The next parliamentary elections will be held in Armenia on May 6.
The official election campaign will start on April 8 and end on May 4.
Armenia's Central Election Commission registered the ballot lists of
eight parties and one party bloc on April 1.
Besides three coalition parties - the Republican Party of Armenia,
"Prosperous Armenia" and "Orinats Erkir" ("Rule of Law"), the Armenian
Revolutionary Federation Dashnaktsutyun, "Heritage" (combined list with
the party "Free Democrats"), the Armenian National Congress (party
bloc), Democratic Party of Armenia, the Armenian Communist Party and
the party "United Armenians" will compete for parliamentary seats.
