Armenia needs moderator for change of power - expert 

ArmInfo. The most important  position in Armenia remains vacant. This was written on his Facebook  page by member of the alternative projects group Vahe Hovhannisyan, I  mean the opposition representative for the post of Prime Minister of  the Republic of Armenia. 

According to the political scientist, the current authorities of the  country have lost their social base, but in order for the chaotic  process of losing the social base to develop into political  rejection, it is necessary to occupy a very important post in the  country, which remains vacant. 

"This is the position of a moderator, a person who will patiently  work with influential groups, public assets, regional elites,  political units, the church, business elites, civil society and other  circles, saying what he intends to achieve in order to form a  consensus for the sake of the new government, which will lead the  country out of chaos through changes," Vahe Hovhannisyan noted.

He added that we are talking about the most important position in  history. "This is specific work, dirty work and very difficult, but  this is the most important work, if you like, of a real hero of this  historical stage. Another option is simpler: wait and come up with a  leader. But the birth of a leader is possible only and only after the  moderation stage. As soon as a public consensus on changes is formed  as a result of moderation and a mechanism serving this idea is  formed, one after another individuals will be formed who will make a  serious bid for the new government. The process will go so smoothly  that we will ask in surprise: "Are these really the same people who  were next to us? We now need a mediator of internal processes. We do  not even listen to each other, we are divided into audiences and do  not listen to the person closest to us. The degradation of our state  is so deep that we have turned into something like Libya, where  instead of political systems, institutions, there are groups, tribes,  etc., which must be brought to consensus in order to resolve some  issue. We are deceiving ourselves by claiming that we have political  institutions, parties, party life or politics in general. As a first  step, we need to start listening to each other. This will lead to  de-escalation within the country, which will dramatically increase  our state resistance. If we do not do this, one day unknown people  will penetrate our country from somewhere and stay here forever. It  will happen so quickly that we will not even understand what  happened," the political scientist said.

He once again stated that moderation is the most important work that  needs to be done in 2025, and the moderator is a real hero who should  not have any personal interest in this work. "The name of the person  (or group of people) who will carry out intra-Armenian and  pan-Armenian mediation will be written in golden letters in the  history of the country," Vahe Hovhannisyan concluded.
