    KOCHARYAN RETURNS "DEBT" TO SARGSYAN

    The Armenian press has recently reported that Robert Kocharyan and
    Serzh Sargsyan are going to leave for Moscow to meet with Vladimir
    Putin, the president of Russia. The subject of discussion will be
    the upcoming presidential election in Armenia.

    The press hinted that Gagik Tsarukyan's decision is delayed by this
    meeting. Apparently, there is no decision taking into account the
    fact that Tsarukyan appeared under "crosswise" pressure and can't
    decide what to do.

    Actually, the issue of forming government in Armenia is again attempted
    to be solved abroad, in Moscow. Certainly, Kocharyan will later say
    that he has close ties with Putin and they often meet as friends, and
    Sargsyan will say that trips to Moscow are part of his competences. But
    none of these reasons convinces anyone in Armenia.

    An analysis on Kocharyan's vision of the country's future has appeared
    on the non-official website of the second president. It runs that
    his vision remained unfinished and he will sooner or later be back to
    finish it. And his return is a matter of time. The logic of Kocharyan's
    behavior and activities hints that these are not simply words.

    Besides, Kocharyan will not forgive the events of the 2007
    parliamentary elections. Then, the government had thought to allocate
    the parliamentary majority to the newly-formed Prosperous Armenia Party
    to nominate Vartan Oskanian for president in 2008. However, with the
    support of Moscow, Serzh Sargsyan has failed this plan presenting it
    as a "Western" project to seize the parliamentary majority and the
    government. Kocharyan had nothing else to do but to visit the RPA
    office at midnight to congratulate Serzh Sargsyan.

    Taking into account his character and style, Kocharyan may forgive
    and reconcile with many things, at least for some period, but he will
    never forgive his "night visit" to the Republican office. It seems
    that he decided to ruin Sargsyan's mood on the eve of presidential
    elections and to return his "debt". In other words, he will try to
    convince Moscow that Serzh Sargsyan is going to take Armenia out of
    the Russian orbit.

    One year ago Kocharyan used to express surprise that in a
    twenty-year-old independent country people dwell on the solution
    of the government's issue abroad. The issue of government forming
    is complicated and it requires serious political culture which does
    not exist in Armenia. Any political figure, present or former, will
    have to ask a question on the promotion of the culture. This is the
    meaning of the political activities. Instead, the Armenian political
    class keeps seeking the solution of its issues aboard.
