MEETING OF ARMENIA'S THREE PRESIDENTS ALTERNATIVE TO REVOLUTION - GARNIK ISAGHULYAN
15:57 25.09.13
Chairman of the National Security party Garnik Isagulyan, who worked
with all the three presidents of Armenia, has arrived at the conclusion
that Armenia's ruling elite has wasted the great potential and capital
it had during the first years of Armenia's independence to ensure
its own reproduction.
According to him, the only way to salvation besides a revolution is
a meeting of the three presidents of Armenia to discuss the ways out
of the present situation.
"What do we have to do to accumulate national capital? We are faced
with most serious threats. Armenia has never seen a confrontation
between pro-western and pro-Russian forces, which is reflected in
society. It will lead to a split within society," Isagulyan said.
He has decided to officially apply to the ex-presidents Levon
Ter-Petrosyan and Robert Kocharyan, as well as to Armenia's incumbent
President Serzh Sargsyan.
"I am going to meet with them and propose a meeting. Thereafter,
I am going to meet with the ex-president of Nagorno-Karabakh Arkady
Ghukasyan and with incumbent President Bako Sahakyan and propose
that they join the format. If they do not consider my proposal to be
adequate, let them undertake," he said.
He noted that Armenia's ruling coalition is unable to propose any
solutions through discussions.
"All the claims that the decisions made on September 3 are the
result of serious discussions are, to put it mildly, untrue. The
only mechanism is as follows: an idea from above is supposed to be
mechanically reproduced. This is political incompetence. No one within
the ruling circles is able to raise his voice against the president's
decision. We need to form a body capable of bringing the issue forward,
and it may be the presidents' council," Isagulyan said.
He has addressed his request to Armenia's president and will reiterate
it in meeting with Serzh Sargsyan - to organize a meeting of Armenia's
first, second and incumbent presidents.
"This is the only format that enables the proposal of solutions. It
may also be a 3+2 format, that is, the Nagorno-Karabakh ex-president
and incumbent president will participate. A 3+2+2 meeting may be
organized. Also, a meeting between two presidents may be held as well.
But it is not so important. In any case, any format will foster a
combination of ideas," Isagulyan said.
For the past three years Armenia's ex-presidents and incumbent
president have not had any contacts, he added.
