YEREVAN, JANUARY 9, NOYAN TAPAN. There is a corruption government
system in Armenia, which does not permit anyone, including the
authorities, to act within the limits of the law. Arman Melikian,
a candidate for presidency in the forthcoming presidential
elections in RA, expressed such an opinion at the January 9 press
conference. According to him, that vice concerning all spheres should
be eradicated.
In A. Melikian's opinion, we need the political decision of he head
of state to have a non-corruption system of government. "The state
government system will not be able to change until he makes that
political decision," he said.
According to him, that decision cannot be legal, as "the system,
which is to ensure execution of legal decisions, does not work." He
also mentioned that in difference to the other candidates, he does
not connect the corruption system with names of persons, as their
change does not result in system's change.
The next important step, according to A. Melikian, should be
differentiation of the business sector and power in the country. As
A. Melikian evaluated, a monopoly economy is formed as a result of
merging of business and power, and monopoly economy "excludes free
competition and operation of law."
Touching upon the settlement of the Nagorno Karabakh conflict,
A. Melikian said that he is against any discussion over the liberated
territories.
"Armenia should not speak about it. These territories should become
the ownership of Armenians of Azerbaijan. This way they should receive
a compensation for their damages," he said.
A. Melikian said that he has a sufficient human resource to implement
his preelection program. According to him, he has a possbility
of becoming RA President, and even the circumstance of not having
preelection headquarters in all regions will not hamper it.
