"Touching upon the question who is to blame for March 1 events, I will definitely say that authorities bear responsibility for all developments in the country," RPA Secretary Edward Sharmazanov told today an extraordinary parliamentary session devoted to the discussion of interim committee's report.

At that he stressed the importance of making a clear-cut distinction between "being guilty" and "bearing responsibility". Responsibility certainly lies upon Armenian authorities, but we are to blame those who instilled ideas of political denial in society for several months. "Had Levon Ter-Petrosyan responded to President Sargsyan's post-electoral call for cooperation, March 1 tragic events wouldn't have occurred," Sharmazanov stressed.
