Aram Karapetyan: The world expected to hear different thing from Serzh Sargsyan (video)
The 70th session of the UN General Assembly can be divided into two parts. The first one is the Assembly, and the second can be called the “phase of auctions,” Chairman of the New Times Party said on September 30. He says the key issue of the meeting was to verify the positions of the Unites States and Russia on the Syrian issue. “An agreement has already been reached and Assad’s fate is already determined, now the parties are negotiating on technical issues. The green card given to Putin to launch airstrikes against the Islamic State group in Syria is the logical continuation of the process,” he said. Aram Karapatyan says the strongest speech was made by President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko. “It was close to reality.” As for Serzh Sargsyan’s speech, Mr Karapetyan said ‘it was as powerful as is Armenia.’ “The world did not expect Serzh Sagsyan to speak about the problems in Armenia. The world expected to hear a president of the country that has overcome numerous difficulties and conflict.”
