“That his right, and from the point of view of the outcome, I do not think that something will change”,- so responded Ara Papyan, Head of “Modus Vivendi” Center, to the question of Aravot.am of how he assesses Nikol Pashinyan’s “Civil contract” initiative. He is pessimistic that it is possible to change something in Armenia with a political initiative. According to him, the fight has been moved to a pretty harsh field, when “the government openly says that it has the majority and nothing can stop it.” Mr. Papyan brings the example that the European countries conducted a referendum on EU membership, they amended even the Constitution, and in Armenia, the fate of 2-3 million people is decided by 70-80 people. To our question of what weapon should be used to fight against the authorities speaking in a language of “jerk” and “nothing can stop me”. Ara Papyan replied, “I particularly do not see a form of struggle as the main form of fighting is the elections. And, I do not think that the elections may change something in Armenia, consequently, people have chosen age-old proven form of fight, the migration.”
