Քվեաթերթի հետ 10.000 դրամ եւ «բգներիդ կանգնի» գրություն
07 Մայիսի 2012 - 19:44

Դավիթաշենի բնակիչներից մեկը վերադարձրել է ընտրակաշառքը։
Թիվ 05/04 ընտրատեղամասի հանձնաժողովը քվեաթերթիկների հաշվարկի ժամանակ ծրարներից մեկից դուրս է եկել 10.000 դրամ, իսկ քվեաթերթիկի վրա գրված է եղել՝ «բգներիդ կանգնի»:

Այս մասին www.hra.am–ին պատմեց թիվ 05/04 ընտրատեղամասային հանձնաժողովի անդամ Կարինե Ղազարյանը: Քանի որ թիվ 05/04 ընտրատեղամասը գտնվել է մանկապարտեզում, Կ. Ղազարյանի խոսքերով՝ այդ գումարով մանկապարտեզի երեխաների համար ինչ-որ բան կգնեն, իսկ թե կոնկրետ ինչ՝ կորոշեն վաղը:

Armenia doesn't have a true democracy yet, ppl don't understand what's best for them, It's exactly like Russia. The people need a strong guy to rule them until the country matures enough to be democratic, thus the repubs currently have the best policies for maintaining an Armenia. you think countries like sweden/norway got democracy in just 20 years? it took them centuries, and they didn't even have the same geopolitics that Armenia has.

Think of it, without putin and a strong party(ie anti-western) ruling the country, Russia would be in chaos. Same would happen to Armenia.

I agree with you 100% on this idea. But that does not mean that the RPA, Serzh, or the oligarchs in general, work on gaining at least some sympathy from the people. In my opinion they lack that 'skill'.

Now I know that they are working and doing charitable stuff, such as building houses in sahmanamerdz villages etc. but that is not enough according to me.

I personally believe that Serzh Sargsyan is a patriot, but is surrounded by people who are not. He should try kick them out of the party and replace with young people. This is just an example on how Serzh can gain sympathy from the people.

Republicans are the only ones who are right for Armenia(and artsakh) right now, the others can't be trusted.

Then how come the majority of the people is not on their side? The Republicans claim they have 500 000 votes, while in reality most of them are names of either dead people or of people who left the country.

I have my own support to a political party yes, but I do not think that any political party in Armenia has a big support from the people. I'm talking about all parties, RPA, ARF, PAP, Heritage, ANC, Orinats Yerkir, etc.

What are they doing to accomplish their goals? If there aren't any concrete steps being done, I don't see the point in talking about it.

If you search "Sardarapat Movement" and "Սարդարապատ Շարժում" in different online newspapers and some tv(a1plus and gala), you will find information about them. All what I understood is that they are planning to use direct democracy and create «այլընտրանքային իշխանություն»:

From time to time they organize seminars in various small places, because according to them they are being refused in large halls, hotels etc.


Nevertheless, I vote for ARF as I find their social-economic policy best for Armenia.

By the Way, I am not supporting Sardarapat, I just want to know people's opinion...

About Sardarapat Movement

We created Sardarapat movement as our answer to the Armenian Question. We, the men and women of the Republic of Armenia—Karabagh War veterans, school teachers, economists, human rights activists, and artists—came together in late-2010 to resist the ongoing political and economic crisis, to build a country that generations of Armenians have dreamt about, a country of freedom and social justice, of equal rights and responsibilities, a country of hope and opportunities for each and every Armenian worldwide. We realized that citizen-oriented domestic policies and independent foreign policy are far too important for be trusted to the current illegitimate ruling regime. That is why we decided to take charge now, just as we did 20 years ago, when we rose and won the war for Karabagh against all odds; and just like our ancestors did 90 years ago, by pushing back the advancing Turkish armies in the battle of Sardarapat. There were no political parties involved then, no regular army to speak of, and not a state in charge—just the free will of free people of Armenia, Armenians and non-Armenians alike. The name of our movement thus bears a direct reference to the Sardarapat victory, a critical turning point of our modern history.

Indeed, today’s Armenia is facing a new Sardarapat: the nation is divided by terrible polarization and injustice, when people are deprived of their basic rights of free vote and independent due process; when a handful of corrupt individuals has “privatized” the heritage of generations and bargains with adversaries on the terms equivalent to conceding our independence and our victories. Sardarapat movement stands for strong and vocal Armenia-centric foreign policy; against any territorial concessions in Karabagh, which would be equivalent to jeopardizing safety of people who live there and the security of the country as a whole. No reconciliation with Turkey is possible unless Ankara accepts its responsibility for the Genocide and takes credible steps for addressing its implications. On the domestic front, we believe that our economy can no longer be a hostage to a few oligarchs, while the overwhelming majority of population is being humiliated by poverty and unemployment. We have to rebuild a strong export-driven economy in Armenia instead of maintaining the current deeply flawed model of overreliance on foreign transfers and import. Thousands of small and medium sized businesses should sprawl where at present a few monopolies choke the economy. We have to cherish our land and use its agricultural potential properly, no matter if it is in Armenia proper, Artakh, or the liberated territories. In rebuilding our economic potential we have to rely on all our resources, first and foremost on the human capital of those in Armenia and the Diaspora. Together we can achieve a lot. Together we will!

What are your opinions about Sardarapat Movement?

"Sardarapat Movement is an actual alternative to the politics and political organizations which discredited the Armenian policy and the very idea of statehood in the Armenian society. We estimate the current situation as a deep political, social and moral crisis that became a logical result of the criminal oligarchic economy, policy and morality.
Sardarapat Movement is warning about serious challenges which Armenia faces today and which demand the unity of national forces for the common struggle. Time has come to give Armenia back to the Armenians.
