We demand that the Armenian authorities immediately take people out of
the disastrous situation in which they have found themselves as a
result of 15-year-long pillage of the republic, Sarkis Karapetyan,
head of the Party for National Salvation, has told journalists at the
Azdak discussion club.
He said that members of his party, who are veterans of the Karabakh
war, would use all legal means to influence the country's leadership
and "spare no effort and sacrifice everything in order to make justice
finally prevail in Armenia".
[Passage omitted: reference to the Karabakh war]
"Armenia has all opportunities to become a rich and strong country,
and with people's backing, we shall succeed in this," Sarkis
Karapetyan said.
The founding congress of the Party for National Salvation was held in
April 2004. At today's press conference, the party leader failed to
say precisely the number of the party's members, explaining this by
the constantly growing ranks of the party. Sarkis Karapetyan himself
was a member of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation - Dashnaktsutyun
until 2001 and was expelled from its ranks for organizing
anti-government protests.
