Այսօր երեկոյան Երևանում կկայանա ռուսական շոու-բիզնեսի սկանդալային ներկայացուցիչ, բալետային պարուհի Անաստասիա Վոլոչկովայի մենահամերգը: 168.am-ը Անաստասիա Վոլոչկովայի հետ զրուցել է հենց այն պահին, երբ նա ստեղծագործական իր խմբի հետ օդանավակայանում էր և պատրաստվում էր մեկնել Երևան:
Я думаю, что в данном контексте особенно дело Рамиля Сафарова показало общественный отклик в Азербайджане на политические шаги, тоесть были лица, которые выразили несогласие с такой политикой и хотят продолжить нормальный диалог с армянами. Хотя они вообще не согласны с армянской позицией, но они хотят вести нормальный диалог.
These declarations limit Armenia’s sovereignty and that is the greatest threat. Before that all such matters have been regulated by the Collective Security Pact charter. The charter defined that if any of the member states wishes to deploy military objects of non-Collective Security Pact state in its territory it could negotiate this matter within the Collective Security Pact and reach an agreement in that regard. Of course, in this case, we are first speaking about reaching consent with Russia.
” To the comment that according to him Jhangiryan and Sargsyan are against the sovereignty Makeyan said, “Either they haven’t deeply examined the document or they voted as the wind would blow.” He added that by this voting the decision of the political board had been violated.
The parliamentary elections of Georgia of October 1 played a role of a catalyzer for the political field of Armenia as well. On the next day of elections both the opposition and governmental parties of Armenia couldn’t hide their admiration about the victory of the Georgian pro-Russian political party “Georgian Dream” and have sent their congratulations to its leader Birdzina Ivanishvili. Our oppositionists would connect their thrill with the fact that change of government took place in the neighboring country.
168’s exclusive Interview with Sirusho – Recently during the presentation of the song “lost melody” you said that now many songs sound like they have lost their melodies and qualities. Do you mean the Armenian songs only? – It is about both Armenian music and other counties. Generally in the world there is a tendency […]
With his weird behavior Sahakashvili was able to make Georgia the most democratic state in the region. By the way, besides serious inner reforms Georgia had a cultural advancement, which made it more developed than Armenia by several times. Sahakashvili was able to lose, which can be the beginning of Georgia’s new victories in the region and world.
The former foreign minister announced that it was four years since the Russian “Compatriots” project started its operation in Armenia, which is involved in legal immigration of Armenian people in Russia. According to Arzumanyan, during these four years in total 26,000 people have applied for immigration and 1500 out of them were approved. They legally refused the Armenian citizenship and adopted Russian citizenship. Arzumanyan said it was an open “man-hunting” and it was unacceptable to let any country to recruit people from Armenia for immigration using legal mechanisms.
Even Galust Sahakyan announced that the author of that announcement was not Kocharyan because it was not his wording. This means that the government is expecting an answer with a strict wording and actions to follow. So far the only party involved in this tension is Vartan Oskanyan, and in the future we will see whether the PA will back him or will leave him alone. These processes will result in changes not only in the relations between the RPA and PA, but within the PA as well. In consideration of this precedent it is not excluded that in the future, during more important processes in politics Gagik Tsarukyan may be out of the country again.
Tigran Shahverdyan, a Russian Armenian, head of the Selenokhod moon space machine asks about the expected results. Tigran Shahverdyan studied at the physics and mathematics special school after Artashes Shahinyan. He was inspired by his grandfather, who taught him to physics, mathematics and space science from early childhood.
Heritage party chairman Raffi Hovhannisyan in a press-conference commented on the general prosecutor’s petition to the parliament to cancel MP Vartan Oskanyan’s personal immunity and said that it was politically motivated and “should be rejected”.
On September 15 the president had a meeting with the government, which was widely covered in the media, however the publications included the president’s announcements only. We have the statement of the president’s controller commission concerning the procedures of procurement. The violations in that paper is a real “policies and procedures manual” for those who […]
Yesterday the Heritage party chairman made a sensation announcement saying that he had an agreement with the chairman of Free Democrats party, according to which they had to drop their mandates together in order to create opportunities for younger professions. So far the representatives of the Free Democrats have not dared to blame Raffi Hovhannisyan in lying because months ago they were praising his moral and personal qualities. The spokesman of the FD said that there had not been such agreement. The deputy chairman of the party Anoush Sedrakyan said too that such agreement could not exist.
The parliament discussed the intergovernmental treaty on “allocation of military objects on the territories of CSTO member countries” and the only people in the parliament that opposed to that draft were Vartan Oskanyan and MP Alexander Arzumanyan. He believes this is dangerous because after verifying this agreement in order to allocate military divisions of a third country on its territory Armenia must have the agreement of CSTO countries.
The parliament discussed the petition of the prosecutor general to cancel MP Vartan Oskanyan’s parliamentarian mandate. The situation was like the authorities were focusing on the law, and the PA and their supporters were focusing on political aspects behind the case. Vartan Oskanyan announced that the case was connected with the presidential election and was against the PA. PA MPs did their best to protect their teammate. Some people were honest in their words, others did not seem to be so, but as a political power the PA seems to give up on its teammate.

“He was rehearsing from 10 am till 5 pm without any break,” the ticket booth saleswoman was telling this to everyone. She was talking about pianist Yevgeni Kisin, who on September 27, threw a concert in Aram Khachatryan concert hall of Yerevan in the framework of Yerevan Perspectives festival.
The memories of parliamentary elections are still fresh among all of us. Back then, Ter-Petrosyan would explain ANC’s cooperation with the PAP with the following – “it is not important how many seats each party will have in parliament. The important thing is to ensure that the opposition parties have more seats than the RPA in the parliament.” Now this slogan may have a different formulation – it is not important who the opposition candidate is, the important thing is to ensure that this candidate is able to beat the government candidate. ANC members still stubbornly resist this scenario. ANC wasn’t able to form a new political agenda and be in charge of it.
The government had definitely calculated that the campaign against the PAP would have gained great public resonance by turning this party into a politically repressed political force. In this case, the repression is even more highlighted because it is addressed to one of the key members of the party – Vardan Oskanyan. If the RPA-PAP conflict is really so tense that the government shuns PAP’s participation in the upcoming presidential race why would it undertake these steps to even more raise the image of the party within the society?
I don’t see him in that process. I don’t believe in competition between that couple. People have seen him shedding blood. Also, Kocharyan has left so many ruins after his tenure that many generations yet to come will remember that. Only that fact that he gave the most important strategic objects and properties of Armenia to a foreign country against so much debt borrowed is enough to put his name in the same list of historical people famous with treason to the state. Kocharyan has given special roles in this treason to his partner and brother Serzhik.
He was sentenced to two months imprisonment. The police have also arrested the former head of the social services payments department Hovhannes Grigoryan and head of pension and projects department Ashot Abrahamyan. According to the police, investigation is in process and so far accusations have been brought against 29 people.
question is why doesn’t Sargsyan dissolve the government?
Perhaps the reason is not only the assumption that it’s no good to change the team closer to elections. But who would be the new prime minister and government members? By having unlimited governmental resources Serzh Sargsyan doesn’t have a big variety of human resources because the government has been surviving with a collective instinct for years. As a result, months before elections, Sargsyan has appeared in a state of a “decisive loner,” the teammates of whose only care about his re-election in order to keep receiving “financial kick-backs.”
“And the most terrible thing is that Adibekyan was enabled to show Robert Kocharyan as an opposition candidate with 20% rating. And Robert Kocharyan, way before digesting October 27 and March 1 tragic events, was turned into an opposition candidate. And this happened as a result of the fact that the movement never consistently made the government fulfill its promise and unveil the March 1 events. We all see that starting from April 2011 the theme of March 1 is frozen and only the relatives of victims are interested in that,” he mentioned.
Prime-minister Tigran Sargsyan has had a discussion with representatives of casinos. Casino owners were in the government to complain to the PM.
The government is going to discuss the issue of providing support to political parties having collected 3 or more per cent of votes during parliamentary elections. The draft law that was initiated by the finance ministry has been developed based on the law on parties and its article 27-2/3 and the Central Electoral Commission’s information about the number of votes collected by alliances of parties and political powers during parliamentary elections.

The Independence Day celebration is a good opportunity to have a glance at the past 21 years to understand the economic processes and see where we are going to. In order to understand the entire picture, we have made up some statistics and numbers to illustrate the economic tendencies during the past years.
On the occasion of the 21st anniversary of RA independence RA President Serzh Sargsyan made a speech during a reception organized at sports complex after K. Demirchyan.
The current president, instead of baiting our people by convening a council, had to bat his hand upon the table and say “this is it! From now on, no more robbery”. “He should’ve said so, but no “don’t rob”. And had to say “Legitimacy from now on, the one attempts to break the law will be punished.” I do not want to say bitter words as today is not the day for that. Remember, there are lasting values, despite all the bitterness and exasperation. The main value is the restoration of Armenia’s independence and the state, on the occasion of which I heartily congratulate you.”
