Stepan Safaryan: Armenian authorities saw the branch they are sitting on
"Armenian-Turkish rapprochement based on current Protocols becomes a warm-up in Karabakh settlement process," Heritage faction MP Stepan Safaryan told a National Assembly September 9 briefing.
Authorities' statements that Diaspora should achieve Genocide recognition without RA support drive a wedge between Armenia and Diaspora. "Allowing dissidence between Armenia and Diaspora means sawing the branch one is sitting on," Safaryan said.
When asked by journalists why Heritage demanded President Serzh Sargsyan's resignation, he noted that signature of RA-Turkish Protocols would mark the first step in that direction.
