EVIDENT LIE MUST NOT BE SCOT-FREE
- We Shouldn’t Try To Please Others
Released from state of emergency the Armenian Pan National advocacy, as it was expected, immediately resumed their every day work: which is – lie continuously, slander, swagger, swagger to the end, in front of the western officials “spreading democracy”.
In such circumstances what should we do to avoid the repetition of the mass brain washing? Member of RPA Parliamentary faction Artak Davtyan responds our questions in this regard.
“ Of course some people will try to introduce their desires and thoughts as a truth and in this term we have lots of work to do. In my opinion Mass Media must create conditions for those who make provocative announcements in their non-public speeches, to have an open dispute with the state representatives thus providing an opportunity for the people to judge for themselves who they must believe.
After all it is due to the exchange of ideas that the truth is born. This is the real role of the opposition – to criticize and propose solutions, instead of labeling the representatives of the authorities. I don’t think any political power, especially pro-governmental will refuse a really constructive proposal, which is aimed at the development of our economy and the strengthening of the state.”
“How can you speak about “dispute” or constructive proposals, when Ter-Petrosyan’s followers are not satisfied with the consequences of March 1 events yet again take to the streets with the slogan “struggle, struggle to the end?”
“I can understand what do they mean saying “to the end”. To the deadlock? I must record with regret, that democratic institutions are not accomplished, in our reality and the traditions of handing over the power has not been yet formed.
People themselves must decide whom should they trust the helm of the state. Had our political system and the electoral institution been accomplished, despite everything the election returns would have turned into a celebration for everyone. I’m sure we are on the right direction, and what we really need is to develop and accomplish democracy, due to which the mechanisms that lead to the civil society will finally be established.
In this regard I attach a great importance to the accomplishment of the 4th power, which is also the task of the legislative bodies. We must try to regulate the domain, where instead of restricting the freedom of speech we must form institutions of responsibilities. Each Mass Media must comprehend that freedom of speech firstly requires great responsibility If we respect one another, if we try not to cross the limits of ethics, by sewing hated and enmity towards each other, if we don’t spread evidently false information, we will really understand what is freedom of speech in reality.”
”Do you mean those who spread false information must be punished? Don’t you think the western structures will immediately label it as an intolerable encroachment upon the freedom of speech?”
“I don’t think we should do our best to please others. According to the first article of our Constitution the Republic of Armenia is a sovereign state, which means every foreign organization or official must respect the country’s Constitution and Law.”
