Perhaps, you have noticed that when dance music is about to end, in order “to warm” the dancers more the musicians accelerate the tempo so that in the end the music sounds twice faster. It is like that not only in our-the Armenians’- culture but in the case of many other nations’ dances, and this trick from the folk art passed to classical music, where it is called alla breve (translated from Italian – brief, quickly). And the musicians playing at weddings call it “on two”, 6/8 is “simplified” at maximum and becomes 2/2` marking the last ecstatic phase of the dance.
At this moment, it is the last act of the “parliamentary dance”, and soon everything will go in an accelerated tempo. That is to say, in the coming two months the one who enters the politics should do so, the one who comes back should do so, the one who gets married (in political sense) should do so, the one who gets divorced should do so. I recalled the process of “being revealed” at the beginning of the 1990ss; in particular those who had entered the parliament as communists or PANMs (Pan-Armenian National Movement) started “being revealed” as dashnaks (Armenian Revolutionary Federation). That is to say, those people, we may say, who had been dashnaks from their childhood were hiding it just due to some reasons, and then the moment came to declare about the political preferences publicly.
It is the same now, the moment came for being revealed; the one who was silently sitting in Baghramyan 26, appeared not to be a state official at all, he is a deeply disguised spy of the opposition. You have definitely watched in American movies; undercover work when the police or an officer of special agencies enters in criminal environment in order to tear everyone’s masks.
Such interesting disclosures will take place again. It is not a coincidence that the mass media is trying to guess whether the first and the second presidents will be against the third one, the first and the third will be against the second one, or the second and the third one will be against the first one? The rearrangements and alliances of political forces depend on these three not complicated combinations. More accurately stated, not the alliances but the announcements about pacts because any party of individual considers himself so powerful and influential that he considers such a union as a union around his/its talent- “it is a matter of caliber, brother”.

That’s why I suppose that soon more and more announcements will be heard about new parties and new pacts. The intensity of the events will thicken. The dance will be more ardent and passionate. But, eventually, one will say “dear messmates, I kindly ask you to take your seats and fill the glasses”.
