Tigran Karapetyan: On February 20 authorities will understand that they should not have started "a fight" against Gagik Tsarukyan

 The leader of the People's Party, Tigran Karapetyan, thinks that at the February 20 rally of the 3 non-power parliamentary forces the authorities will understand that they should not have started "a fight" against Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) leader Gagik Tsarukyan.     

He is sure that Liberty Square will be overcrowded on Feb 20. Karapetyan says that he will also attend the rally and he may even make a speech there. The politician adds that the ruling Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) is making disgusting attempts to sow discord within the PAP. "The RPA speaks of Tsarukyan's ignorance and tax evasion but forgets its own officials' ignorance and reluctance to pay taxes", says Karapetyan.    

He is also upset by the behavior of RPA Deputy Chairman Armen Ashotyan and RPA Spokesman Eduard Sharmazanov, who have gone beyond all ethic standards. Karapetyan disagrees with the experts who say that "the RPA-Tsarukyan fight is a political show". Karapetyan thinks that Tsarukyan is conducting an honest fight. In the meantime, he admits that the second president of Armenia Robert Kocharyan is trying to return to power due to the efforts of Tsarukyan and the PAP. "However, people will not let him do it, I think", he says.
