YEREVAN. - Armenian authorities must first of all present the test
of Association Agreement with EU to the public and hold a nationwide
referendum on the issue, head of Marxist party said.
Davit Hakobyan,leader of Armenian Marxist party, is confident that
the Agreement must be signed only after holding a referendum.
"The nationwide referendum will show which part of the society stands
for the EU and which for the USSR," Hakobyan said during the Tuesday
press conference.
The Association Agreement contains no point on either settlement of
the Karabakh conflict, or ensuring Armenia's security.
"The Agreement is called to develop trade, but the European market
is not waiting for Armenia. As to the Eurasian Union, the matter
is creation of a new geopolitical center," he said, noting that
the Eurasian Union must create a balance in the context of current
pan-American hegemony.
