Armenian opposition calls for new elections

YEREVAN. Nov 23 (Interfax) – The foreign policy pursued by the authorities, in particular in resolving the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, has brought Armenia nothing but repeated failures, Viktor Dallakian, secretary of the Justice opposition bloc, said at parliament on Tuesday.

“In the years of Robert Kocharian’s presidency, the conflict, which used to be an issue of national self-determination, has become a territorial dispute between Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Karabakh itself has ceased to be an actor and become an issue in negotiations,” he said.

Replacing the leadership through democratic elections is the sole way to resolve the situation, Dallakian said.

Alexan Karapetian of National Unity, another parliamentary opposition party, demanded that “the authorities disclose to the public what is going on in negotiations over the Karabakh settlement.” He also complained that “the priorities of Armenian foreign policy have never been announced and there is no national security concept.”

Azerbaijan recently succeeded in having international organizations adopt resolutions declaring Armenia the aggressor in the conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh.
