Ter-Petrosyan: Pashinyan has exhausted the resource of street actions  as a method of pressure on parliament

ArmInfo. In the current situation, when the Republican Party has an absolute majority in the parliament, it can sabotage the activities of the new government, and  judging by the statements of the RPA representatives, it will do so.  The first Armenian president Levon Ter-Petrosyan wrote about this in  his article published by the portal ilur.am.

At the same time, he stressed that so far to achieve the set goals,  the new Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan used the resource of mass  protests, which was perceived with understanding by the international  community as a manifestation of democracy. At the same time,  Ter-Petrosyan stresses that Pashinyan will not be able to use this  resource to pressure the parliament in order to promote his  initiatives. <This resource has already been exhausted. It is one  thing to exert pressure on the parliament as the leader of the  opposition, the other being the prime minister. This time, the  international community will not tolerate this, since such an  approach will be regarded as the pressure of one branch of power on  another, and the one whose results by election were recognized by the  same international community, "Ter-Petrosyan said, adding that the  way out situation are extraordinary parliamentary elections in the  process of reforming the Electoral Code.

At the same time, the first president notes that the RPA will try to  obstruct this way, because the early parliamentary elections do not  proceed from its interests, the Republicans are not sure of their  victory in the case of new elections.

Summarizing, Ter-Petrosyan expresses the hope that political forces  will show prudence and on a consensus basis will find a way out of  the current situation, which is a threat to statehood.
