Interview with Armenian National Congress member Aram Manukyan.
“So, let them set all the political prisoners free, let them not ban the meetings. Is Nikol a murderer? Are Sasun or Ashot Manukyan murderers? What will they do? Will they take weapons, go and shoot? Let them conduct free elections. They don’t do it because they are afraid.” 2009-08-06

Interview with Samvel Nikoyan, a deputy chairman of the National Assembly, the chairman of the ad-hoc parliamentary commission on March 1.
“It is not clear who of the demonstrators has shot in response to the shooting in the air on behalf of the policemen, whereas it is seen in the video material that there are some people shooting. Actually, no “secret agent” works have been conducted that would make the work of the preliminary investigation body or the commission easy.” 2009-07-29

Interview with Caucasus Institute director Alexander Iskandaryan
“Even if something is signed it will be equal to not signing anything. We are aware that no document is being prepared today. It is impossible to hide it. If a meeting between the presidents is possible to hide, it is impossible to hide the experts’ meeting.” 2009-07-22

Interview with Country of Legality party vice chairman Hovhannes Margaryan
“CofL has never been insulted, and it does not take much smartness to realize that the coalition has been formed after the national – presidential elections. Local elections have absolutely nothing to do with the coalition.” 2009-07-11

Interview with Astghik Gevorgyan, a Yerevan elders’ council member, the chair of the Journalists’ Union.
“I don’t know many of the council members by sight. They must talk and express their points of view, so that I can understand what kind of elders’ council we have. We have not done anything jointly yet. Perhaps, I will manage to express my opinion about the elders’ council potential 6 months later.” 2009-07-08

Interview with Tigran Paskevichyan, a writer and columnist
“You have been searching for that man for a year and a half with all your government machinery and you have not managed to find him. That man has come and turned himself in to the police. Why didn’t you act as manly as to say “go home, Nikol and come to court on this day?” They keep the police, the forces and KGB at the expense of our taxes, search and don’t find. Pashinyan comes; they catch him and then claim they have taken him into detention. They have not acted in a manly way.” 2009-07-04

Interview with political technologist Armen Badalyan.
“Actually, there is no coalition. RPA is a bureaucratic party, the only advantage of it being pro-governmental. Since the authorities are represented by that party, it will have certain weight; otherwise it will terminate to exist. CofL has no authority. At any time, Serzh Sargsyan can dismiss Arthur Baghdasaryan from work, and there will be no CofL at all.” 2009-06-26

Interview with Hrant Margaryan, a representative of ARFP board
“I would like to have a more serious attitude towards Heritage. For that, I should, first of all, understand their internal problems. That is, who is Raffi Hovhannisyan in Heritage, and what is Heritage without Raffi Hovhannisyan? We must figure out the answers to these questions to the end.” 2009-06-20

Interview with Armenian Volunteers Union national political initiative coordinator Zhirayr Sefilyan
“They say they have been thinking and working out their platform. The situation in our country is so serious that their slowness is just frivolity. Reminding each other “I told you this, you told me that” is not a serious approach.” 2009-06-18
