Pace

[TJ]

Do you guys think that what Oskanian said about kicking the opposition members of Armenia's representation in the PACE assemble because they urged the assembly to make Armenia have a referendum of confidence in kocharian justified?
I personally think it is one of the stupidest and incredibly unbelievable things to come out of the gov. mouth in a long while.

Answer this question and vote on the poll. which is a different question.

You're exaggerating Tigran. Stupidest thing was to shut down A1+

As for Oskanian, as much as I like the guy, I think he overreacted when he said that these 2 should be expulsed. You must consider his position though. As minister of foreign affairs, he is responsible about how Armenia is represented abroad. His point of view, or the way I interpret it, is that such delegations, with members of government and opposition parties in them, must actually work together in cases as critical as Artsakh (which as you have pointed out yourself, is probably the biggest obstacle for Armenia's quicker development).

As for confidence vote...sure, why not? But I am still not satisfied with the alternative. If you think what Osganian said was the dumbest thing, this is what the potential alternative has to say....

Speaking at the "Azdak" discussion club today, Hamayak Hovhannissian lashed out at the Armenian Foreign Minister. According to him, since he came to Armenia from abroad, Vardan Oskanian "has not become a repatriate, remained a person without Homeland, who is in Armenia for the purpose of doing some catchpenny job." Hovhannissian stated that instead of speaking of "the territories occupied by Armenia" from
international platforms, Minister Oskanian had better "think of
Yerevan occupied by the Karabakh clan."


My problem with the opposition is that they don't seem to be proposing any alternatives, or doing anything constructive. They just plot a change of power, yevayln. Alright, you're not in power now, we get it....but at least make something of your time as opposition. If Artarutyun ever came to power, I'd like to see how they'd treat the opposition.....


And you better not leave the politics forum...it died for a while

im with danzig here, as Kocharian is the least xxxx liberal capitalist politician, the rest are as scummy or worse.

As for the reds, i dont know their stance, if theyve gone to capitalism then xxxx em too, but if they still support a workers state then my support must go to them

”I will never tolerate when NKR conflict issue, one of the most significant problems for Armenia is about to be put to discussion and voting in PACE full session, an Opposition MP of Armenia raises the trust referendum issue 2 minutes before the voting thus distracting from the essential point”.

That's Vartan speaking, and he makes one hell of a good point.

How much truth is there to rumors of Kocharian returning the conquered lands of Artsakh?

Kocharian never would. I don't know where you heard that from, but I think Armenia has always been strong on its position, and has succeeded to somewhat sway the international opinion towards our direction. Of course, that can also be due to the perfect elections seen in Artsakh, which were much cleaner than those in Azerbaidjan (or in Armenia proper).

I would guess that Geghamyan or other opposition members would be softer on Artsakh as they keep xxxxxing about the Karabakh clan, which drives me insane.
