"I don't doubt that we'll manage to raise a strong rally wave. My
confidence is conditioned by modern tendencies of development of the
domestic political situation in the republic," Leader of the Republic
Party Aram Sargsyan said in his interview with ArmInfo correspondent.
According to him, the fact that Armenian first president Levon
Ter-Petrosyan's return to active politics has abruptly activated the
political life in the country and seriously changed the situation is
indisputable. "Ter- Petrosyan has visited his ideological opponents
from ARF Dashnaksutyun, the relations with which were practically
hostile. He met Leader of the National Democratic Union Vazgen
Manoukyan with whom there were problems after the events if 1996,
and finally, L.Ter-Petrosyan paid a visit to Karabakh to spite those
who said that the first Armenia president sells Nagorno-Karabakh. All
these unpredictable steps are based on the idea of consolidation,
solidarity, a unified state, and overcoming the present situation
with joint efforts," A.Sargsyan said.
He stressed that Levon Ter-Petrosyan will be nominated not by a party
but on public initiative because it is the public and not parties
that should guarantee the success of a starting movement. As regards
the role of rallies in the political life of the country, Republic
party leader says that if the authorities understand and look at the
developments in the country not with enmity but with understanding of
state interests, secure attributes necessary for fair elections, there
will be no necessity for rallies. If the regime creates information
blockade for the opposition again, we will have nothing to do but to
go to the street and seize it. The winner is who the street belongs
to, Aram Sargsyan says.
The politician is sure that the new rally wave to start from the
meeting in the Freedom Square on October 26 will be much powerful
than that of 2003.
The public trust in Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan has not
increased since 1998. There is a constantly deepening gap between
the authorities and the public. Moreover, the public hatred to the
regime has become genetic already, A. Sargsyan says.
