The Chief of Police of Armenia Vladimir Gasparyan stated about his
intention to throw fishing nets which have caught drug addicts who are
members of the BHP so far. Time will show what else will appear in
the election net of the Police. But this is a very symbolic tactics
especially considering Serzh Sargsyan's New Year address that the
parliamentary elections are not a means of taking power.
In other words, Serzh Sargsyan will not fight for votes, leaving it
to political forces, but he will be "fishing" with Vova Gasparyan.
No need to get surprised that in Armenia "fish" is more important
than vote. So happens in all the countries with criminal governments,
shaded deals and unlawful guarantees for many years. In such a country
everyone is vulnerable and it is only necessary to throw the "fishing
net" to catch everyone, in this case, it is no longer important how
many votes each will get.
It first of all concerns the pro-government forces. In the
parliamentary election the fight will be tougher between the government
forces rather than with the opposition.
It is no secret that Serzh Sargsyan's main concern is the Bargavach
Hayastan Party which, unlike the opposition, besides some public
support has also the administrative resource and the money necessary to
keep it. The BHP has influential government resources which can be more
aggressive in case Robert Kocharyan decides to enter into the game.
In this case, only the fishing net can repress the appetite of the
BHP because the election period in 2012-2013 is not only the process
of formation of power for the next 5 years but also the basis of the
2018 presidential election.
