Serzh Sargsyan, Artur Bagdasarian, and Gagik Tsarukian, the leaders of
the three major political parties in Armenia -- the Republican Party,
the Prospering Armenia, and Orinats Yerkir - are said to have signed a
statement condemning the actions of the supporters of first Armenian
post-Soviet President and recent opposition presidential candidate
Levon Ter-Petrosian.
Sargsyan told journalists that the opposition was obviously bent on
discrediting the Armenian government and its people. "We should make
serious efforts to convince the authors of this scenario that they
are not on the right track," he said.
Talking about the recent unrest in Yerevan, Sargsyan insisted that
"all organizers, regardless of their rank and the degree of their
guilt, must stand trial."
"We should put an end to such attempts [to destabilize the situation
in the country] once and for all," Sargsyan said. He urged those who
participated in the revolt to voluntarily turned themselves in to law
enforcement, saying that could be considered a mitigating circumstance
in the future.
