The world is changing, only Armenia is rolling back. Yesterday
significant transformation took place in Europe. Socialists won
there, which means that France will not continue to strengthen euro
and the global financial system together with Germany. It means that
the government policy will be aimed not at those who earn enough but
those who have no jobs.
Greece witnessed a transformation as well where people elected forces
which disagree that their country and wealth be sold for paying
their debt. The Greek elections are already called the beginning of
transformation of Europe. If "antic democracy" leaves the eurozone,
it will be necessary to review the entire system.
And only in Armenia is the old system extending its roots deeper and
deeper. Nobody knows what the Armenian voters agreed to give their
votes for. There are no lefts, rights, nobody offers any future,
nobody argues on social or liberal economy.
This is a fight for death, not life. The entire society went to the
arena to watch the fight of two gladiators - the RPA and the PA.
Unlike the show, the viewers were paid money to cheer the gladiators.
And the viewers cheered as loudly as they could.
Nothing has changed in Armenia after the election. The RPA was in
government and stayed there. And it means that nothing will change
in the lives of ordinary people. It means that SMEs and farmers will
hardly make both ends meet, borrow money from banks at extremely
high interest, monopolies will persist, the oligarchs will continue
to come to parliament only if the tax legislation will be reviewed.
Nothing has changed in Armenia. Elections are over. The voters who
got 10,000 drams and went home turned on the TV and heard about good
elections in which they had just participated.
