    LEADERS OF "ORINATS YERKIR" AND "NATIONAL UNITY" PARTIES BLAME EACH
    OTHER FOR RELATIONS WITH SERGE SARGSIAN

    Yerevan, May 25.ArmInfo. In the course of the debates over "Shant" TV,
    Artur Baghdasarian, leader of "Orinats Yerkir" party, again blamed
    Artashes Geghamian, leader of "National Unity" party, saying that he
    is carrying out the political orders of Serge Sargsian.

    In response, Geghamian suggested Baghdasarian to apply to the court,
    blaming him for taking money from Serge Sargsian. Baghdasarian said
    that he won't do that, as only God can judge. He grounded his
    accusation in cooperation of Geghamian with Sargsian by the fact that
    in the elections for prefect of Yerevan's Center community Geghamian
    supported the candidate nominated by Sargsian.

    Besides, Baghdasarian said that Gagik Kostandian, member of "NU"
    party, is the supplier of RA Defense Ministry. He emphasized that, in
    the presence of Mher Shahgeldian, Kostandian turned to Mr. Sargsian
    with the question whether he has any instructions or not. Baghdasarian
    conditioned the behavior of Geghamian and his party members by the
    atmosphere of fear ruling in Armenia.

    In response, Geghamian said that Kostandian carried out the orders of
    RA Defense Ministry, as all the rest of the entrepreneurs refused
    to. "Often, he worked with loses, only to secure his employees with
    jobs," he said. At the same time, he said that he can't help sharing
    the critical viewpoint of Baghdasarian addressed against Serge
    Sargsian, who created a clan structure. As for the support of "NU"
    party to Gagik Beglarian, head of "Kentron" Yerevan community,
    Geghamian said that his party appreciates the quality of the work
    more, than this or than official or the persons supporting the
    candidate. In response, Baghdasarian continued blaming Geghamian,
    saying that "NU" party acts according to the public statements of
    Sargsian. "I can't remember any case, when "NU" party supported the
    opposition in critical moments," Baghdasarian said.

    In response, Geghamian reminded about the April 12 night, 2004, when
    the policemen broke up the opposition rally, while Baghdasarian was
    watching them out of the window of his cabinet. Baghdasarian answered
    that he protected Geghamian and other opposition figures, when the
    authorities tried to arrest them.

    Afterwards, Baghdasarian said that anyway, he respects some of
    Geghamian's allies, as they are normal people. "Just fancy what a
    normal person I am, if all of my allies merely adore me," Geghamian
    reflected the attack. Baghdasarian said that he didn't mean that
    Geghamian is fully insane. "Sometimes You merely fall into agony,"
    Baghdasarian explained. In the end of the debates, both political
    figures began convincing the TV viewers that they don't have any
    unofficial relations with Serge Sargsian. "I had only working
    relations with Sargsian," Baghdasarian said. While Geghamian stated
    that he had never had any relations with Sargsian. "Though, as
    Mr. Baghdasarian said, Sargsian pays me for criticizing him. It's not
    quite a normal behavior for a normal person," Geghamian said.

    Afterwards, Geghamian remembered that his mother celebrates her 85th
    anniversary and congratulated her, adding that he kept his promise by
    communicating with Mr. Baghdasarian as with his young brother. In the
    end, the political figures shacked each others' hands and bade
    farewell to each other.
