Recently, the Armenian National Congress, step by step, has achieved some successes; the authorities, on the other hand, have suffered losses during this struggle, said human rights campaigner Vardan Harutyunyan, speaking to journalists in Yerevan today.<\/p>\n
According to him, that the authorities have been forced to fulfill the opposition’s three demands testifies to the opposition’s victory.<\/p>\n
“I think that this so-called dialogue that is supposed to take place will become a ladder on which the opposition will stand to make its next move. I realize that these people have action plans which they will execute in stages. As for how quickly the authorities will make concessions and how easily the [Armenian National] Congress will achieve execution of its plans, I cannot say. But the keen eye can’t not notice the sequence of successful steps,” he said.<\/p>\n
Asked whether the human rights campaigner’s keen eye doesn’t notice a hidden deal between the government and opposition, Harutyunyan said: “My keen eye doesn’t see hidden internal actions, but sees overt acts. In history, there are many instances of dialogue between the authorities and opposition, but as a rule, they are hidden \u2014 that’s what we all fear. But I don’t see this here. I more so see public actions.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
