GAGIK TSARUKYAN NOT ONLY POLITICAL FIGURE, BUT PERSON RESPECTING THE STATE - ARAM HARUTYUNYAN
14:30 / 18.02.2015
The situation in the country was really explosive and the interview of
second president Robert Kocharyan was really important in this regard,
leader of National Consent party Aram Harutyunyan told the reporters
on Wednesday.
"It was a really speech of the president which showed that he is not
on the side of anyone. He showed that not being on the side of the
authorities or opposition, he is just concerned with the fate of the
country and calls for calmness," he said, adding that he does not
understand the aim of Levon Ter-Petrosyan's letter to the president.
"I cannot say whether it was really written before the Republican
party's Executive Body's sitting or after the interview of Robert
Kocharyan he tried to come up with the same stance," he said.
"The authorities are scared and stepped back, seeing the trust of the
people toward Tsarukyan. Of course there will always be kamikaze like
Ashotyan who not seeing the water yet hurry to wear swimming suits.
Such people lose in the end," he stressed, noting that the country
really needs figures concerned with its fate.
As to Serzh Sargsyan-Gagik Tsarukyan meeting, Harutyunyan said that
even during the wars leaders of countries meet. "I do not think that
the initiator of the meeting is Gagik Tsarukyan. The important thing
here is to transfer the dispute to the political platform," he said.
Harutyunyan stressed that the ARF-D did not have any role in the
process of reconciliation and today's statement of Tsarukyan proved
that he is not only political figure but the one who respects the
state. "It is not Tsarukyan who must forgive the Republicans, the
people will not forgive them," he noted. "There are few political
victims as a result of it, one of them is Ashotyan. Tsarukyan is the
winner in this situation, he is always opposition," he said.
