Ukraine is a spectacular example for Armenia that demonstrates how
the oligarchic groups' fight for the power can lead the country to
a collapse and civil war, Hrachya Arzumanyan, expert in defense and
national security problems, has told ArmInfo.
"The society has allowed the oligarchs to throw Ukraine into chaos and
turn it into a state without strategically important territories. The
oligarchs' fight for power has caused the death of the country, whose
potential could have enabled it to join the leading powers of Europe
some day. But this will never happen", he says.
Arzumanyan points out that "maidanization" may proceed in various
forms. It may be as harsh as in Ukraine or it may be mild when the
president's early resignation happens within the frames of a palace
revolution and becomes known to public on television. Regardless
of the revolution scenario, the results will be disastrous for the
statehood and the remainders of domestic legitimacy.
The expert is convinced that "maidanization" deprives the people of
the opportunity to appeal to the national law. The "administrators"
of the territory are appointed by geopolitical force centers. So,
the oligarchic groups' fight for the political power ends up in death
of the statehood and oligarchs themselves.
"The critically important point for Armenia, which is missing in the
Ukrainian crisis, is that in Armenia "maidanization" will proceed amid
the existential threats for the people. This considerably complicates
the people's task to realize the developments and prevent the country's
collapse and death", says Arzumanyan. He thinks Armenia should avoid
the scenario of "maidanization".
