STARTED WITH POET'S WORDS AND REGRETTED FOR KOCHARYAN
The leader of the Nor Jamanakner Party held a news conference a few
days ago and stated that the refusal to issue a certificate on
permanent residence in Armenia over the past 10 years was a political
instruction because the government is overwhelmed with fear.
Afterwards the court declined his appeal against the decision of the
passport and visa department of the police. On the eve of the court
decision Robert Kocharyan had stated it's a pity that Karapetyan
cannot run in the campaign because figures are needed to amuse the
public.
On December 6 Aram Karapetyan started his news conference with a
response to Robert Kocharyan's statement, and he began with the words
of Silva Kaputikyan, an Armenian poetess, about one of the
politicians. `When I heard this man speak Russian, I thought he was
speaking Armenian, when he started speaking Armenia, I understood
that he is ignorant,' Aram Karapetyan cites the poetess. `My
impression is that Robert Kocharyan has become a sectarian. He uses
every opportunity to swear at someone. For instance, I cannot
understand what his job is,' Aram Karapetyan says, referring to
Robert Kocharyan's statement in an interview with the Golos Armeni
that Levon Ter-Petrosyan is up for having Armenia annexed by Turkey.
`One amuses him, the other leads Armenia into Turkey, the third I
don't know what, one is a drum, the other is a band of ethnic
instruments. Frankly speaking, my impression is that it is a sect,
and someone is preaching against the other,' Aram Karapetyan says. He
says Robert Kocharyan had stated before the court ruling that this
person has no right to run in the election.
`Judge, do switch on the TV and listen to what I am saying, think for
yourself. I understand that political instructions are carried out.
It always happens in such countries. It may be done by telephone,
they may send people. But it is something new when they place a
political order openly, with the world watching,' Aram Karapetyan
explains the situation.
Robert Kocharyan had also said that when in 2003 they declined to
issue a certificate on permanent residence in Armenia over the past 5
years for Aram Karapetyan to run in the parliamentary election, he
had so many years to appeal against it. `I know he dislikes reading
books, newspapers but even if a person at such a post does not read
documents, what does he read then?' Aram Karapetyan says
demonstrating the decision of the first instance court in 2003. `At
the bottom of the document it is written that the verdict is enforced
from the moment of reading and is not liable for appeal. Nothing else
is written below it, Mr. Kocharyan, it is written Yuri Rashidyan.
What shall I appeal against? Maybe against Yuri Rashidyan?' Aram
Karapetyan asks.
As to Robert Kocharyan's regret, Aram Karapetyan says he regrets that
Robert Kocharyan is not running in the presidential election because
Robert Kocharyan has amused the society a lot with his word stock and
pronouncements.
