Yerkir.am talked to ARF-D Parliamentary Faction's Secretary, Aghvan
Vardanyan about the Education Minister, Armen Ashotyan's recent
facebook post, who wrote that Prosperous Armenia Party's (BHK) latest
statement serves as a lifejacket for ARF-D and that the latter
deserves better. `Keep your fake power, your Pyrrhic victories to
yourselves. We are going our way. You keep to yourselves the false
evaluation as to who is whose lifejacket. People, whose electoral
campaign was based on one person, speak about lack of state and
political figures in ARF-D. People who breathe in and forget to
breathe out without being ordered to do so speak about democracy in
party ranks. It's
Minister of Education, Armen Ashotyan
ridiculous; they speak about fresh blood they whose newest members are
the ones with the mental cast. We, with our principles, uniqueness,
independence, are the holders of our old and modern history. What are
you the holders of?' Vardanyan wondered and concluded `blessed are the
poor-in-spirit young Republicans'.
Remarks on the party's seven-point platform
ARF-D Parliamentary Faction's Secretary, Aghvan Vardanyan gave an
interview to H2 channel's `Right of speech' program and discussed the
party's recent seven-point platform.
As to why ARF-D proposes the adoption of a parliamentary governance
system no later than 2015, Vardanyan explained that the Republic's
President must see to the necessary preparations for this change
before the next parliamentary elections take place, reports 1in.am.
Moreover, he said that the control over the authorities is bigger with
the parliamentary governance system. Vardanyan highly evaluated the
handing-over the authorities' control mechanism to the opposition and
said that this is a systemic solution, carried on through the times,
regardless of who is in power or in opposition.
Vardanyan also said that according to his calculations some political
parties spent between 150-170 million dollars during the last
parliamentary elections campaign.
`We have to make a step forward and establish some kind of relations
with Mountainous Karabakh so as its security guarantee acquires an
international substance' he said. As for the Armenian-Turkish
protocols, Vardanyan said that Armenia must withdraw from those and in
case there is will to normalize the bilateral relations then that
should be done without preconditions and in the following format `the
leaders of both countries establish diplomatic relations and open the
borders' he concluded.
Finally, Vardanyan welcomed Prosperous Armenia Party's reaffirmation
of the passing to a 100% proportional system as well as the new
endorsement on the adoption of the parliamentary governance system,
although since that party had never before made such a proposition,
Vardanyan said one could call it a tactical move in regard to the
upcoming elections.
Yourselves. We Are Going Our Way'
