The main intrigue of the Armenian political life is the relations
between the Bargavach Hayastan Party and the Republicans. It became
tenser when the ANC leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan made his famous
"political analysis" on the BHP. Here, another tactical scenario
by Levon Ter-Petrosyan can be discerned. Understanding that the
Congress seems to have run out of the resource for sustaining the
home political intrigue, Ter-Petrosyan tried to blame the government
for the intrigue. Moreover, there was a greater potential in the
BHP-RPA sector.
It is also evident that the Bargavach Hayastan Party and the
Republicans justify Ter-Petrosyan's scenario, surely if it exists.
None of them wants or is able to close the chapter by expressing
their clear approaches in the political field.
In addition, the Republicans are in a more favorable position because
it is the ruling majority and arguing all the allegations in its
address it keeps affirming that it is going to hold free and fair
elections. It is another issue whether its words are convincing
or true.
The situation of the BHP is becoming more and more incomprehensible.
This party refuses to specify its attitude towards the RPA, the
policy of the Armenian leadership, the government, Robert Kocharyan,
the civil society and the opposition. The attitude "Guys, let's live
in peace" can hardly be considered as political approach in a country
where there are many fundamental issue requiring clear assessments,
diagnosis, clear definition of the frame of those responsible.
The BHP avoids all this. But everyone keeps staring at the BHP,
many even keep "fighting" for it. Apparently, this is what the BHP
considers as its success. Gagik Tsarukyan has perhaps been persuaded
that the more he keeps the "floating rate" and the more others "fight
for it", the bigger the likelihood that Tsarukyan will win in the end.
A situation has been created when those who "fight" for the BHP also
benefit from Tsarukyan's "floating rate" - "let him float as much
as he wants, he will not find a place in any harbor", this way think
those who "fight" for him.
Everyone can be the mouse, but the society is perhaps destined to
assume the role of the cat. Consequently, it will be more beneficial
to the political subject, instead of "fighting" for BHP, to fight for
the society. And it will be beneficial to BHP, instead of enjoying
the role of the apple of discord, to join the fight for the society
in order not to become the mouse.
