YEREVAN. - Davit Shahnazaryan left the opposition Armenian National
Congress (ANC) bloc, he told RFE/RL Armenian service on Thursday.
`I left the ANC central office in March before the e lections, and my
political career in ANC is over,' Shahnazaryan said without telling
the reason.
`As a result of the elections the picture of Armenia's internal policy
changed completely. Before the elections there was a bipolar political
system in Armenia - the government was on one side and the opposition
was on the other. After the elections a change occurred in the
opposition pole where Prosperous Armenia Party took the place of ANC
and is calling itself an alternative force.
Besides, Prosperous Armenia, which is standing on the top of the
opposition pyramid has the same level of legitimacy as the Government
or maybe a little bit lower as it gave out bribes in a much more
coordinated manner than the Republican Party of Armenia (RPA),'
Shahnazaryan mentioned.
Shahnazaryan comes to the conclusion that `today we do not have
legitimate opposition in the country'.
