Yerevan/Mediamax/. Former Armenian President Robert Kocharyan said
today that "arrests and repressive actions will lead the country to
the deep and long-lasting crisis".
He said this in his interview to 2rd.am site commenting on current
political situation in Armenia.
"I can't explain why the President needed it. If the calculation was
to exert a pressure on Gagik Tsarukyan and thus dissolve the PAP,
it wasn't effective. Vice versa, the opposition field demonstrates
distinct signs of unification as the vocabulary and goals have become
more radical. The PAP has not been discredited either due to extremely
lame arguments. Any action against the PAP now will be considered as
a persecution lacking legitimacy", said Robert Kocharyan.
He noted that "the more zealously the authorities try to "clean up"
the political field, the stronger the unification against the power
and the more realistic the prospect of political shocks will be".
At the same time, the former President said that the authorities still
can "stop and not to resort to an administrative actions against the
PAP leader, remain exclusively within oral duel and return to the
political field of confrontation with the opponents".
"The intentions of the ruling party voiced at the session of the RPA
board are not within the Constitution of Armenia. The PAP and the
opposition in general is literally forced to organize mass actions
in the streets with unpredictable ramifications. The arrests and
repressive actions will lead the country to a deep and long-lasting
crisis. Our country is overloaded with grave issues and their solution
is only possible through the broader unification of the society
and restoring people's faith in future. However, unfortunately,
what happened became a strong impulse in the opposite side", said
Robert Kocharyan.
