THEY DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY WANT
- In my opinion, they don’t even know what they want. Sometimes there’s such an impression that any proposal which hasn’t been made by them is something bad.

Either the opposition is the defender of the people’s rights or the authorities are the enemies of the people. And who has said that in a parliament consisting of 131 members, 7 people should have as many rights as do all the rest? That’s why the parliament has a majority. It is the people that decide which forces should make up a majority and which forces shouldn’t.
We are ready to sit in a constructive atmosphere and discuss all the matters of concern with the minority, but it doesn’t mean that all their proposals should be admitted,” EDUARD SHARMAZANOV said to our correspondent.
