CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE IS A CRIME, RULING PARTY MP SAYS

Republican party MP Manvel Badeyan referring to the possible civil
disobedience being discussed at the Open Civil Council in the Yerevan
Liberty Square, said the laws should be implemented as their violation
is crime.
"The laws are being written for being implemented and by the way they
are being written by the representatives of people in the legislative
body and not subjecting to them is a crime while the state must treat
all the criminals in the same way," he added.
The reason for civil disobedience, as a rule, is connected with the
failure of the authorities to implement people's demand, and in this
way people respond, implementing their wish directly and not in a
mediatory way.
Badeyan said it is just their wish that today's president is not
elected by people and they want to impose their wish on people. But
they may also be in real confusion. For instance I have witnessed
a case when a person who voted for Andrias Ghukasyan cannot believe
that the latter was not elected, saying that 'elections were rigged
that is why he was not elected.' This person is in true confusion,
but it does not mean that she/he must demonstrate disobedience toward
other members of the society," he said.
As to how this way of fight may affect the economy and whether it may
give a real blow to it, Manvel Badeyan offered to ask about it the
'blowers.'
"The state, authorities are always objectively inclined for the country
to develop without blows. Neither of the authorities will want blows in
the country and will do everything for it not to happen, explaining to
the people that very often different political and non-political forces
use them as a tool in raunchy games," the Republican party MP said.
