RA FM, Vardan Oskanyan, intends to leave the post of Foreign Minister
on the eve of elections in the Republic, he said in a interview to the
"Haikakan Zhamanak" newspaper.
According to him, it is 10 years on the eve of elections since he
takes up the post of the Minister and it would be incorrect for him
to hold it within the next 5 years. "A person, heading the FM, is to
be changed", V. Oskanyan emphasized. He does not agree with rumors,
according to which the RA FM intends to stand for the President
post in 2008. "I have no decided yet what I will do after I leave
the Minister post, but I know for sure that I want to see Armenia,
where I and my children live, a normal country", V. Oskanyan said.
He reminded that he was mainly engaged in a foreign policy in view
of his position and he has started talking of internal problems very
recently since "elections are coming and I see serious problems",
among which he called the necessity to form a political field,
to eliminate the barrier between the authorities and the society,
the authorities and the people.
