The leader of the Heritage Party who is away from Armenia visiting his
parents has addressed the Armenian people. He expressed regret about
the informal and useless meetings of the leader of the ruling party.
He notes that the risks are deeper and broader and promises to make
a statement after returning to Yerevan.
He means the meeting of two members of the Heritage Party with Serzh
Sargsyan. The other members of the party criticized these two for
going to that meeting, emphasizing that the party had not authorized
them to go. And those who went to the meeting announced that Raffi
Hovhannisian had been informed, hence agreed.
Most probably, both sides are right. There was no decision of the
party but Raffi Hovhannisian knew about the meeting. In other words,
what happened is something typical of the Armenian "political parties":
on the one hand, it saves its face, on the other hand, it enters into
trade with the government.
Apparently, the Armenian "political parties" have not realized
what happened on February 12, which is noticed from their behavior
after February 12. Particularly, in regard to the amendments to the
Constitution. Some of the parties who had been invited went to meet
with Serzh Sargsyan, those who had not been invited called it a proof
of their value. However, here is a situation when going or not going
is the same, and politics is measured by its results. In other words,
the results of going or not going will be the same.
The point is that February 12 and the subsequent developments were
"legitimized" by Serzh Sargsyan's initiatives, facilitated by the
"political parties". These groups have never been distinguished for
their political thinking and adequacy and have always followed the
government's initiatives. On February 12 this situation was completed,
and going or not going to Serzh Sargsyan was the last finish.
As to what should have been done to prevent such a situation, the
Armenian political parties could not care less. All they care for is
if they are going to have a place in the future government, whether
inside the system or outside it in the "opposition".
In other words, from February 12 they understood the only
comprehensible and important thing for them - the circus is over,
the masks have been torn. Apparently, the Heritage Party has failed
to understand this too.
