    IN NATIONAL UNITY THEY KNOW WHO PUSHED BUSINESSMEN TO LEAVE ORINATS YERKIR

    Lragir.am
    26 May 06


    Unlike the fight of the National Unity and the Orinats Yerkir Party in
    the National Assembly, seasoned with vulgar phrases, the debate
    between Hovanes Margaryan, Orinats Yerkir, and Aghasi Arshakyan,
    National Unity, on May 25was civilized. `In the framework of
    politeness,' as Aghasi Arshakyan said. No, of course, the parties were
    `armed' with facts, arguments,documents; there were accusations but
    the speakers addressed each other `dear Aghasi,' `dear Hovanes,'
    `brother,' `darling' and with other similar phrases.


    In the beginning Aghasi Arshakyan reported that what happened between
    Orinats Yerkir `was artificial and directed by a third party.' In
    answer to the question of Lragir.am `why did you yield to the
    provocations of the third party?

    'Aghasi Arshakyan announced that the National Unity had not been
    provoked, they expressed their stance. The most important thing is,
    according to Aghasi Arshakyan, to find out who benefits from this
    situation. `If we get the answer to the question, everything will be
    clear.' And who benefits? Aghasi Arshakyan believes that tensions
    between Orinats Yerkir and the National Unity were kindled by Hmayak
    Hovanisyan. Hmayak was in the faction of the National Unity but then
    he left. The National Unity is not going to assume responsibility for
    `then,' said Aghasi Arshakyan, mentioning that this atmosphere is
    beneficial for the `present president and people around him.' The
    National Unity does not have anything against Orinats Yerkir. They
    simply want Orinats Yerkir to answer the question `who is responsible
    for this state in the country?' and suggest that they `repent, admit
    their fault, apologize.' `An honest person need not go through
    purgatory,' Hovanes Margaryan cited Arthur Baghdasaryan.

    As it could be predicted, the debating sides often repeated what the
    leaders of their parties had stated during the debate one the
    eve. Orinats Yerkir always called things by their names, Serge
    Sargsyan does not fund the National Unity. And as usual, first there
    were words of praise for their political party, then accusations
    against the other followed. Hovanes Margaryan: `When the opposition
    boycotted the National Assembly, as part of the coalition, we were
    criticizing, doing the job of the opposition. Where were you when they
    were coercing the Orinats Yerkir members of parliament who joined the
    initiative of the residents of Buzand Street to lodge a complaint with
    the Constitutional Court?' Aghasi Arshakyan: `An opposition issupposed
    to criticize what is bad, and the force in power should try its best
    to improve the situation.' Arthur Baghdasaryan has a high
    international reputation, says Hovanes Margaryan. Yes, agrees Aghasi
    Arshakyan, adding that the opposition also helped to promote his
    image. The parties agreed that there had been pressure on the
    businessmen-members of parliament who left Orinats Yerkir from Robert
    Kocharyan administration. But if in Orinats Yerkir they do not know
    where exactly the pressure came from, Aghasi Arshakyan knows,
    `Armenchik Gevorgyan coerced': either you lose your businesses or you
    leave Orinats Yerkir. Hovanes Hovanisyan assures that `Orinats Yerkir
    is becoming stronger. Compared with 84 members leaving the party over
    the past month, 1800 became members.' `Quantity is one thing, quality
    is another,' immediately followed Aghasi Arshakyan's remark.

    The two political spheres, the government and the opposition, belong
    to people, and people know which political force should be in this or
    that sphere, people should decide through their votes; the debate
    between Aghasi Arshakyan and Hovanes Margaryan, which passed in the
    framework of `politeness and partnership,' ended in the logic of this
    idea expressed in the beginning of the debate and handshaking.
