The clumsiness, unprofessionalism and treachery, or lack of patriotism of the authorities brought the current situation. Second President Robert Kocharyan, the leader of the "Armenia" bloc that will run in the snap parliamentary elections on June 20, stated this during the meeting with the residents of Sisian town.

"They [the incumbent authorities] consistently destroyed the army for three years and suddenly came to their senses and started building [the army]? No. They will continue to destroy the army. Remember what they promised you in the economy: a rise, a 'magic wand,' and so on and so forth. They promised a sharp increase, they got a sharp decline. Eighty thousand people left [Armenia] in four months; there have been no such numbers in the last 25 years," Kocharyan emphasized.

"We have not divided the society into old and new, people of Karabakh and locals. And we see that they have not drawn conclusions from their mistakes. Instead of repenting before the people and promising not to repeat the mistakes, to bring this trouble to the top the country and not even try to apologize? The exact opposite is happening: He [incumbent PM Pashinyan] says, 'We are proud to have lost [the Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh) war last fall].' Sometimes it is very difficult to understand them," the former president noted.
