“At first, there was no willing to start collecting signatures, now there is, I don’t know who pursues what interests – it is not my problem, but I have my problem in that issue, to see what will be the end of it, at the end of the day, who is an opposition, who pretends and who puts forward what problems,” writer Karine Khodikyan said during a conversation with www.aravot.am before the deadline of collecting signatures, replying to our question whether required 44 signatures would be collected to convene an extraordinary session of the National Assembly and to establish a special commission regarding the Harsnakar incident.
She said that she would clarify her opinion, given the positions of parties, “We had an election ahead of us, there is a whole range of issues.”
Karine Khodikyan remarked that although a lot depends on activities of each party, but more depends on the ruling majority, “If the ruling majority really wants at least some percentage of the society to believe it, it should take a step. Perhaps this is one of those steps that will become a narrow, still long path leading to belief in the ruling majority.”
Ms. Khodikyan is convinced that many Republicans treat the case of the military doctor killed at Harsnakar negatively, but the fact that they don’t condemn testifies to internal discipline or an order from above.
