Khosrov Harutyunyan nominated for MP on the RPA list is convinced that the new National Assembly will reflect more adequately the real allocation of political forces and is more trustworthy. www.aravot.am inquired from Mr. Harutyunyan whether he trusted the MPs that had criticized the government at the time and had changed their opposition attitude, “Politics is not a process of realizing dogmatic political principles, it sometimes requires to change the format of cooperation and partners that depends on what goals a party, a politician pursues at the development stage. In this context, one can say that former opponents may cooperate at some development stage. The Armenian National Congress (ANC) cooperated with the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF), the ARF agreed to cooperate with Levon Ter-Petrossian’s team that not only closed them, but also put them in prison.” We also asked Mr. Harutyunyan whether the fact that he had been nominated on the RPA list hadn’t had an impact on his rating, “It had in a positive way. For example, many people have approached and congratulated me, they still congratulate.”
