“Robert Kocharyan’s name and last name has a meaning equivalent to a sort of offense for the majority of the society, including me. The first President Levon Ter-Petrosyan is worthy of respect because he “pushed up his sleeves” to work for the process of independent statehood-building, he worked of course until the moment when he adopted retreat sentiments. The time of the so-called petty hooligans came after him. Robert Kocharyan was the first of these small hooligans,” – said war veteran Suren Sargsyan in the interview with “Aravot”, referring to the recent interview of the RA second President Robert Kocharyan and his views expressed in this interview. Recall that Robert Kocharyan had addressed the Karabakh issue, the current economic situation of Armenia and the “Sasna Tsrer” actions. In all three planes, Robert Kocharyan estimated the policy and the stance of current authorities with negative shades.
Suren Sargsyan recalls that in the 1990s when he was working in “Lraber” news broadcast, one day, an interview with a semi-oligarch person was on the air. “The then MP Vano Siradeghyan caused a big fuzz to the editor. The question was as follows: the guys are work and living, but who they are to appear on TV,” – tells our interlocutor, recalling that one of the then “wedding-party” singers had promised to donate a car with golden wheels to someone who will show his speech on TV. “In other words, it was so unacceptable showing this class of the society as a good example. But Kocharyan brought this gang and made them NA deputies. Robert Kocharyan has violated all norms of morality, and now, this person is talking about the country, the state and “Sasna Tsrer”.
Frankly speaking, in my opinion, “Sasna Tsrer” guys should have occupied Robert Kocharyan’s private residence and demanded the foreign debt stolen from Armenia, which is about five billion dollars,” – says Suren Sargsyan, referring a question to once Attorney G of Armenia, now, head of the Special Investigation Service, Aghvan Hovsepyan, why he does not investigate the facts of abuse of power by Robert Kocharyan, in particular the reality of how it is possible for “someone wearing moccasins earn about five billion dollars in ten years, by official data.” He, Suren Sargsyan, is sure that Robert Kocharyan has accumulated quite a few of that much of diamonds and jewelry, and now, he is talking about the country, which he has looted to the last penny. “The death of hundred soldiers in the April war, this miserable situation of our army, the image of plundering ministers and Mongol-Tatar image of the generals is due to Kocharyan’s fault and the so to speak, his responsibility.
Who was Robert Kocharyan who turns out to be ready to sign something in Key West? Perhaps, now, we must say R.I.P to Aliyev for not agreeing to sign. Who is he? Who does he think he is? These humanoid creatures that are caused suffering to us over 22 years, our children died … yet, they dare to speak about the country, the state, compassion and plunderers.” Suren Sargsyan announces that they are going to start a process soon and apply to courts to identify the origin of Robert Kocharyan’s estate, “He had stolen the foreign debt of our country and we must get this money back and he must be condemned. Kocharyan should collect money public if people give him any. Kocharyan deserted the political field, of course, along with Serzh Sargsyan. Kocharyan started a series of murders, people began to fall into retaliating in a strange way, starting from beating Ashot Manucharyan and ending with various murders. This was Robert Kocharyan’s period. His drawn two-digit economic numbers were the result of good economic situation abroad, as well as the transfers sent by our compatriots to Armenia, which he was using to build buildings, without re-operating an industry. And is this criminal who must be accountable for all this, today, giving lessons to other criminals, I mean, today’s authorities?” Our interlocutor cannot image a more absurd situation than this. He believes that the situation is more than clear, and no need for us, the entire society, “to walk bent sitting on the camel.”

Back to the situation created during “Sasna Tsrer” actions, Suren Sargsyan states that a reality already became obvious, “The political parties, without exceptions, are a pocket coin: yesterday Kocharyan’s, today Serzh Sargsyan’s. We are no longer going to tolerate this situation, and soon we will make statements about our plans. These issues need to be ended once, and walk by the way of building fair Armenia.”
