Gagik Tsarukyan: Armenia PM should seek counter-revolutionaries in his own team

By

The people want it [the snap parliamentary election] in December, so we want [it] too; we have no such problem.

Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) Chairman, head of the “Tsarukyan” Faction at the National Assembly, tycoon Gagik Tsarukyan, said the aforementioned during a TV interview.

Tsarukyan informed that he will meet with the country’s extra-parliamentary forces, with those that have not collaborated with second and third Presidents Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan, respectively.

The PAP leader assured that even if they were part of the government before, this has changed nothing for him.

When asked whether this means that he has not joined the “counterrevolution,” Gagik Tsarukyan responded: “I have been for the revolution, and I will do more today; the accountability is upon me. Five thousand investors are coming [to Armenia] from 25 countries for investments.”

The tycoon MP explained that the flow of investors into Armenia has stopped not because there is no snap parliamentary election in the country yet, but for a completely different reason.

“Mr. Prime Minister [Nikol Pashinyan] should seek those counter revolutionary people in his [own political] team,” he added, in particular.

Tsarukyan noted that his faction had allocated one-third of the votes needed for Pashinyan to be elected PM in the NA, in the case when he could have nominated his own candidacy to this office.

“I want neither an office, nor money,” the PAP leader added. “What bad thing have I done to my people?”

Also, Gagik Tsarukyan stressed that it is impossible to single-handedly carry out a revolution.

 

Styopa Safaryan. It is obvious that Gagik Tsarukyan has hopes with the government

safaryan-on-gagik“Gagik Tsarukyan has put his return in dependence on several parameters. If he does not sharply refute his return, it means that he himself thinks about it” while talking to Aravot.am said Head of Armenian Institute of International and Security Affairs, Styopa Safaryan. Note that on October 25 while talking to journalists former president of the Prosperous Armenia Party Gagik Tsarukyan said that he had closed the page of politics, but he does not exclude his return to politics.
Styopa Safaryan noted that Gagik Tsarukyan himself connects his return to a certain factors, “It is notable that Gagik Tsarukyan not naturally refers to the statement made on February 12, 2015 because Tsarukyan not only left by his statement but also he left by the statement and decision of the authorities. Therefore, it seems that he himself makes it clear that for his return it is not only the factors related to him because ultimately Serzh Sargsyan called him a disaster and demanded leave the politics. Thus, if the dismissal took place by the decision of both sides, then I think the return also supposes the decision of both sides. It is not a coincidence that Serzh Sargsyan hints on renowned governors”. Touching upon the statement made by gagik Tsarukyan so that the Prime Minister knows what he does, do not worry, Styopa Safaryan said that he did not know why Tsarukyan trusts Karen Karapentyan’s words, however, according to him; this is what shows that Gagik Tsarukyan has a problem with a wing of the authorities “but not with the government and the newly appointed Prime Minister.

Styope Safaryan considers this an obvious fact that Gagik Tsarukyan’s statement are related to the upcoming parliamentary elections “Why he thinks about it, because in any case in 2012 he got the second weight of the political field as a political force. On that basis it is notable that if his factor is removed from the political field for ever, definitely Prosperous Armenia Party will record quite humble results. Gagik Tsarukyan knows well what political support means, and surely he would not love to lose what he got in 2012. And perhaps this is the reason why he does not exclude the possibility of returning to the party before the parliamentary elections of 2017”.

I can not say which prominent wing is that because all those, who are not prominent for Gagik Tsarukyan, are prominent oligarchs for the public. To tell the truth, I do not know who he considers but it is obvious that he separates the government and keeps hopes with it, but also hints about the bad governance by some celebrities. Now who are among those celebrities, whether he hints Serzh Sargsyan, I can not say. But I do not think that those who were speaking wgainst Gagik Tsarukyan are the celebrities”.
