REPLACING INDIVIDUALS USELESS WITHOUT CHANGE IN LOGICS - ARMENIAN POLITICIAN
12:47 â~@¢ 18.04.14
A change of individuals in any country is not likely to lead to
positive reforms if there is no change in the government logic,
an opposition politician has said, commenting on the Rule of Law
party's decision to quit the coalition governemnt.
"The Rule of Law's withdrawal from the governing coalition was to an
extent advantageous also to the [ruling] Republican Party of Armenia.
The 'wonderful [opposition] quartet' will no longer criticize [Premier]
Hovik Abrahamyan's government the way it criticized [his predecessor]
Tigran Sargsyan. And Rule of Law will start strongly criticizing the
government, pointing out to the omissions, because the cabinet under
formation is not going to have serious opponents," the Social-Democrat
Hnchakyan Party's leader, Narek Galstyan, told reporters on Friday.
He said the party thus attempted to bridge the existing gap, adding
that the opposition forces with a strong potential (the Armenian
National Congress and Prosperous Armenia) are unlikely to be so
critical as before, with each of them having their own interests. "The
quartet had a clear ask which is now resolved," Galstyan added.
He said the new government's political activities will largely
depend on the kind of policies to be adopted. "If there are systemic
changes in the country - on which we have strong doubts - there
will be positive changes. But if the oligarchic regime continues
receiving sponsorship, the problems will be further complicated,"
the politician explained.
