YEREVAN. - The dialogue between the government and the oppositional
Armenian National Congress (ANC) will not affect the parliamentary
elections of 2012 in any way, however, it negatively affected the
solution of several social problems raised by the nation, member of
opposition Heritage parliament group Armen Martirosyan told Armenian
News-NEWS.am.
`Last spring the nation was encouraged by the possibility of solving
social and political issues, the nation was ready to change the
government. But ANC's decision to begin a dialogue with the government
only served the government. But with that step ANC failed the
possibility of revolution when there was great political and social
discontent from the nation,' the MP mentioned.
He also announced that by beginning a dialogue with the government ANC
not only nullified the possibility of revolution but also strengthened
the positions of the government.
`As a result the governing Republican Party of Armenia was able to
force the Prosperous Armenia Party to sign a new coalition
memorandum.'
However, according to Martirosyan, if one was to consider the
opposition-government dialogue as a purely political category which
enables to solve some issues then it is a rather positive event.
`However the government-ANC dialogue did not solve any issues
concerning the public. The sides spoiled the idea of a dialogue
between government and opposition.'
