ArmInfo.Amid the global geopolitical turmoil, replacing Armenia's authorities with a  provisional government of some sort would be the greatest act of  folly to be committed, and Robert Kocharyan and Serzh Sargsyan are  perfectly aware of that, Aram Sargsyan, Chairman of the Republic  party, said in an interview with ArmInfo. 

"These people have passed a long way and been tested by power. They  are experienced in carrying the burden of state rule. After all, they  contributed to Armenia making a state. So they should be perfectly  aware that, amid the current turmoil in international relations, with  rules of the game in global politics being changed and specified - by  means of wars - changing power in Armenia is not at all rational even  in the interests of this same nationhood," Mr Sargsyan said.  

In this context, the politician welcomes all the calls for unanimity  inside Armenia, including first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan's  proposal Nikol Pashinyan, Serzh Sargsyan and Robert Kocharyan to meet  and discuss the rather disturbing situation in Armenia and in  Artsakh.    

Mr Sargsyan is surprised at what has caused Ter-Petrosyan himself to  refuse to get involved in this political discourse, whereas, in the  interest of this very unity, he, as senior and founder of the Third  Republic, should introduce the initiative. 

"I think, regardless of the different political approaches and 'camp'  affiliation, the current geopolitical situation is making it  necessary for all the four Armenian leaders to meet and talk. And I  do not at all think that Serzh Sargsyan and Robert Kocharyan will not  be able to calm down their 'street' supporters in case those show  their discontent. It is they that are orchestrating the protests,  with all the rest being just performers," Mr Sargsyan said.
