Three parliamentary opposition parties, actually, offered the
authorities to share the "power pie," parliamentarian Nikol Pashinyan
said reading out the statement by the public and political bloc
"Civil Treaty" he is a member of. According to the statement, at
the 10 October rally by the Armenian National Congress, Prosperous
Armenia and Heritage parties it was observed that the citizens who
joined the rally are given a secondary role and their influence on
the political processes is restricted.
"A proposal to share and transfer the political power was addressed to
Serzh Sargsyan on behalf of the rally organizers. Such approaches are
inadmissible and such tactics are what failed all the initiatives of
the Third Republic. The three opposition parties actually approved the
agreement on Armenia's accession to the Eurasian Economic Union, which
was a result of a concession to the authorities," the statement reads.
At the rally, ANC Leader Levon Ter-Petrosyan, particularly, said
that Armenia's accession to the EEU is a fact and 'shattering' of
some persons over that issue is absurd. As for the power change,
he said Serzh Sargsyan was given time to step down peacefully.
The Union Civil Treaty strictly condemns the actions of the three
parties as a threat to the constitutional order in Armenia.
Simultaneously, the organization comes out for formation of a
new public and political agenda and new political platform. In
this light, Pashinyan said that large-scale discussions will be
organized with the public sector, opposition politicians who share
the above assessments, as well as the political circles in Artsakh
and Diaspora. In the process of creating the new agenda, the Civil
Treaty will not consider itself as a 'leading' structure, but will
assume its part of responsibility in fulfillment of the tasks set.
