Samvel Alexanyan and Ruben Hayrapetyan, more famous with their
nicknames, Lfik Samo and Nemets Rubo, are the interesting axis of
the parliamentary election campaign.
As we know, they are Members of Parliament and they are likely to be
re-elected from Constituencies 7 and 1.
These odious oligarchs have entered into an interesting play with each
other. Perhaps, it is their involvement in football - Hayrapetyan is
the president of the Football Federation and non-official sponsor of
Pyunik Football Club and Alexanyan is the official owner of Pyunik.
So, they were inspired by football spirit to start to play a beautiful
match.
They seem to be trying to trick the society. In reality, they are
doing a favor to the society. And it is not irony.
As we know, Hayrapetyan had decided not to run, then he stated that
only Samvel Alexanyan could persuade him and he did so after which
Alexanyan stated that he is vulnerable socially and can afford the
campaign so he launched fund-raising. Ruben Hayrapetyan handed him
50,000 drams, saying that he does not have more. They made a number
of odious statements such as Nikol Pashinyan is his "brother" so he
is ready to help him with election spending. The other stated that he
will not accept the offer for debate with Gayane Arustamyan because
he is polite enough to defeat a woman.
Samvel Alexanyan and Ruben Hayrapetyan are the salt of the Armenian
campaign headquarters.
Though most citizens say their behavior is cynical their behavior is,
nevertheless, a serious service to the society because they show who
the real masters of the situation inside the government are and what
the real meaning of the Republican slogan Believe to Change" is.
On the other hand, there is also the other side of the phenomenon.
Perhaps, they are more honest than those oligarchs who speak on behalf
of the people pretending to the role of the "father of democracy".
They are what they are and with their behavior they remind the
society what can be changed and those who were born to be changed
cannot change.
