Raising the Stakes: Sargsyan ushers in new political conditions by
tackling former coalition partner
Embattled opposition leader Gagik Tsarukyan called for a snap
presidential election as he responded to President Serzh Sargsyan's
statements during a meeting of his Prosperous Armenia Party's (PAP)
political council Friday afternoon.
"A situation that requires an outcome has been created since
yesterday. I am convinced that the only outcome is a total change of
power by means of an early presidential election," Tsarukyan stressed
in his speech.
Addressing senior members of the ruling Republican Party of Armenia
on Thursday evening President Sargsyan, in particular, ridiculed
Tsarukyan as an illiterate man, describing him as an "evil" for the
country and a "pseudo-political phenomenon". He also announced the
start of the process of "crystallization" of the political arena.
In his speech today Tsarukyan refused to comment on what he described
as personal insults against his character made by Sargsyan. "I won't
descend to such a low level," he said
"As for the political farce, then the Armenian people considers the
fact that this government has existed till today to be the real farce.
This is our common shame and time has come to correct the mistakes,"
the PAP leader charged.
Tsarukyan also called for "nationwide mobilization" to get rid of the
"evil" Sargsyan government through all legal means, including nonstop
rallies and demonstrations.
