YEREVAN, APRIL 4, NOYAN TAPAN. Armenia should adopt a new development
model since 2008, with which it can secure a new quality or flight
in different spheres. As Armen Ashotian, a member of the RA National
Assembly RPA faction, said at the April 4 press conference, part of
society has some discontent over the past 10 years, for which there
were some objective bases. They are characteristic of the development
model adopted by the country in the past years, which has already
exhausted itself. According to the deputy, already from this year we
should try to secure "state-society" proportionate development.
In A. Ashotian's opinion, the events that happened in connection with
the presidential elections in Armenia are developments peculiar of
countries' democracies. The problems of society's discontented part
were not of social nature. "It was the lack of justice that caused
such manifestations among some parts of society, which can be called
extremism henceforth," A. Ashotian said.
According to him, it is obvious that after the March 1 events
Armenia's international positions have been shaken to some extent. The
main problem the real organizers of those events tried to solve
(A. Ashotian means foreign forces) was to weaken the country from
inside making it more vulnerable outside. One of the goals was also
to distract Armenia's and Karabakh's attention from the possibility
to use Kosovo's precedent. "Since Kosovo's independence Armenia
and Nagorno Karabakh proceeding from the formed situation fail to
gain maximum political dividends from that precedent so far, as our
attention is distracted to another direction," the RPA deputy said.
