Deputy head of the Republican Party Galust Sahakyan dwelt on the
Elders' Council election: "Can you imagine what will happen to Yerevan,
if the RPA cedes the position of the Mayor? Yerevan will immediately
be divided and eaten." Republicans also think that even if the RPA
agrees to share governmental offices, dilatants will assume those
posts and will fail the spheres.
Apparently, Republicans have no other arguments to justify the complete
monopoly of the power. A few years ago the argument was the police
bludgeon when violence on March 1 was the response to the demand of
the people to share power. Then the argument was the idea of national
unity: the RPA accused all those who claim to power of the split of
the nation and, therefore, weakening national security.
Then there was another technology: we let you enter in the power,
but reserve the decisive majority. So happened after the parliamentary
elections, when the Republican Party, without hesitation, took exactly
the half plus 1 vote, and the other votes were distributed among the
rest: so, no one was offended.
Now, Raffi Hovannisian seems to be "offended". Besides, all
these methods were so primitive that they immediately "exposed",
consequently, neutralized. The same technology can't be used for
the second time. Even bribes, which had been largely used during
the parliamentary elections, were not used during the presidential
elections since they would have never worked.
Now no arguments are left, and feeble attempts are made to prove
that the Republican Party is composed of professionals, the others
of amateurs and only the Republican is capable of leading the country.
These attempts may cause noting but laughter: all see how the
Republican Party "professionally" runs the state: we have growing
migration, poverty, unemployment, capital flight.
RPA statement that only amateurs are behind the party and the
government is a sign of great disrespect to their own people, to its
potential. This is a sign of great dilettantism when a politician
regards himself as a professional, not waiting for such evaluations
from others.
This last reason may be the last nail in the coffin of the Republican
Party. It suggests that the party is hopelessly behind the social
and political developments. That's why listening to Serzh Sargsyan's
press conference, it seemed that it was written a few years ago. And
his argument that journalists are to blame for the emigration,
and statements that there is no oligarch in the parliament, and his
promise not to change the government, because it fulfilled the task,
all of this only caused confusion. Does the Republican Party think
that Armenia has no Internet, all are blind and deaf, that no one
knows the laws and their rights?
