AUTHORITIES MUST MULL OVER PEOPLE’S DISSATISFACTION
- Interview with the speaker of ARFD Armenian Supreme Body Spartak Seyranyan
“Was it intentional or accidental that the agreement on the formation of quadrilateral coalition was signed together with the elimination of the state of emergency?”
“In my view it was an attempt to combine the approaches of four political powers in one joint program. And in this sense, I think there was a symbol in signing the agreement on the day of the elimination of the state of emergency.
I don’t share the idea, saying that this agreement solves the internal political problem in Armenia. But it was evidently emphasized in the agreement which problems are important for the four political powers and their supporters.
“We already have the experience of the formation of coalition and ARFD has already been part of coalition government. What is the difference between this agreement and the previous one can we consider it a progressive step?”
“The issues included in this coalition agreement is already a step forward. As compared to the previous two documents this one covers bigger working spheres. The previous agreements were more political economic documents, and the agreement signed recently is a more social-political document. Which means the primary problems included in this document are different from the previous ones.
Life showed that we seem to have found the best mechanisms to solve social-economic issues. Of course we disapprove of the tempo and certain failings, but we must accept that we already have the key-solutions and very soon we will probably find the key to the solution of social-political issues.
And what is more important, in the agenda of the social-political issues included in this document it is over again underscored that the only way to the solution of the social-political problems faced by our people is the social dialogue and the social agreement. And it is not accidental that this government can be considered a government of agreement.”
“Criticizing the policy of the former and the ruling authorities, during the whole period of the pre-election campaign, does ARFD support quadrilateral coalition?”
“The thing is, each political power brought the issues, they found important, to this document. It is a coalition of agreement, also because it is the joint program of four political powers, including Dashnaktsutyun’s concerns. In essence, here you can see all the main theses and the priorities we advanced during the pre-election campaign.”
“Which are those problems?”
“First of all the future democratization of society, the problem of the separation of the branches of authorities, eradication of the atmosphere of impunity, and what is most important the maintenance of the national strategic course of the development of our state.
The authorities must mull over the people’s disapproval, only in this case will the country be able to overcome all the difficulties and to develop. Or else, others will start solving our problems.
If it is the constructive opposition, which can influence the authorities, then it is a natural and good phenomenon. But unfortunately, in our reality those who decided to take care of the people, tried to move the country towards another path.
The contents of this coalition agreement give ground to believe that the authorities have the desire to take care of the country.
We didn’t discuss the issue of the positions during the discussions. All the four political powers are well conscious that the inventory of the problems faced by the country, the clarification of the methods to solve those problems is much more important, than the people who must head these processes. If we fail to perform swift and profound reforms people will lose their trust towards the coalition government, today we have time to gain this trust.”
