Armenian President Robert Kocharyan said in Yerevan today that he will
not dismiss the prime minister or dissolve parliament.
Speaking at a briefing in Yerevan today, Kocharyan said that "such
rumours are being spread on purpose in order to create the atmosphere
of distrust towards the president, prime minister and within the ranks
of the ruling coalition", Mediamax news agency reports.
"I can unequivocally say that I do not intend to dismiss the
government. It would be absurd to take this step against the
government which works efficiently and ensures the 100 per cent
implementation of the budget and economic growth," Kocharyan said.
"In spite of attempts by certain circles to create obstacles, the
Armenian authorities are working in a normal fashion," he said.
"There is not a single country in the world where the opposition would
not aspire to change the government," Kocharyan said. Yet, "there is
not a single country where the authorities do not take measures to
ensure stability".
