The so-called silence day is lasting too long. The silence day
preceded the voting, and then the political forces usually make
a political statement. However, the political forces have made no
statements yet. There were some opinions but nobody made a political
statement. Neither did the Joint Headquarters.
The reason might be confusion in which the political forces have
appeared. Did they believe the government's commitment to hold the best
election? In that case, the political forces will need an examination
of sanity or adequacy.
If the force is political and has little understanding of the political
situation of Armenia, it should understand that there would be no
election as such. There will be what has happened since 1995 because
in Armenia the electoral mechanisms were destroyed then.
And if the political forces are aware of this, the next question is
the purpose and appropriateness of their participation in the process
called election. If a political force knows there will be no election
as such and nevertheless runs in the elections, it definitely has
a certain purpose which has nothing to do with the constitutional
process.
And it means that the lasting silence of the political forces of
Armenia, if these forces are sane, of course, indicates some agreement
with the government. They will speak as soon as the agreement is in
place or fails.
As one follows the process of voting, one can notice how the government
kept the other forces on the verge of "sacral percentage".
Then everything was settled with the configuration which satisfied
everyone.
Now one can already speak, criticize, reproach, and we will soon
witness and hear this.
It would be good if the silence of the current political class
continues forever.
