Talking to Tert.am, Gurgen Yeghiazaryan, a member of the Social
Democrat Hunchakian Party (SDHP), who represents the opposition
Armenian National Congress (ANC), commented on a remark by Hovhannes
Sahakyan (Republican Party of Armenia - RPA).
Mr Sahakyan called the ANC "the Titanic, a luxury liner with "an
unskilled captain," Levon Ter-Petrosyan.
"Before making that remark, Mr Sahakyan should have studied the
subject. The Titanic did not go down because of its 'unskilled
captain'," Yeghiazaryan said. As regards the ANC, "this luxury liner
is navigated by a highly skilled captain."
"Ter-Petrosyan may be the only 'captain' in Armenia's 2000-year-long
history that has succeeded in getting at least some of our lands back.
As regards skill, I should note that I do not know anyone in the
Republican Party of Armenia that has the same qualities as the ANC
leader," Yeghiazaryan said.
