POLITICAL CONSCIOUSNESS NEEDS SPIRITUAL ELEMENT - ARF-D MEMBER
17:24 * 14.02.14
Regrettably, the spiritual has no room in society's set of political
values, Lilit Galstyan, a member of the Armenian Revolutionary
Federation-Dashnaktsutyun (ARF-D), stated at a roundtable discussion on
'Language is homeland: state and language policy' on Friday.
"Language is our backbone. School is the basis of all. You cannot have
good citizens without good school. A humiliating atmosphere has been
created in the country. If you want to breathe, you have to join a
party. It is not for the values that people join the [ruling] party,
but it is their struggle for existence that makes them wear badges of
the Republican Party of Armenia. You are not secured unless you are
a RPA member. The authorities are not beside the people," Galstyan
told Tert.am.
"In 2002, we had a state language policy program. Now we have no
program at all. Those in power in Armenia must be well aware of the
problem. And we must keep on raising this problem because the language
is the basis of our identity."
