ArmInfo. 'I think that my main task is to fight the corrupted state
management system and corruption in general', candidate for president,
ex-foreign minister and ex-advisor of the NKR president Arman Melikyan
said at the press-conference today.
He also added that his election programme is ready and foreign policy
issues are the main postulates of it along with the above mentioned
one. 'When becoming the Armenian president I am going to offer the
OSCE MG co-chairs to include the problem about Armenian refugees from
Azerbaijan in the agenda of the talks on the Karabakh conflict. Today
nobody says that ethnic cleansing in Azerbaijan started in 1988,
but the talks several years later, and no attention was paid to the
events before the talks', - Arman Melikyan said.
He also said that as a rule not the parties to the conflict but
representatives of the third party speak about compromises as it is
important for them to gain signing of peace agreement without taking
into account interests of the parties. 'There should be no word about
compromises. One should speak about principles on the basis of which
peace agreement will be signed', - Arman Melikyan said and added that
he knows how to improve position of the Armenian party at the talks.
Asked about his own team at the election, Melikyan replied he does
not have the electoral headquarters yet, but he has got like-minded
persons in many regions of the country. 'I will conduct the campaign
according to the rules.
I have got not much but enough money for that. The main stress will
be put on the meetings with voters and on the work with mass media. I
think it is not expedient to hold rallies', - he said. He declined
to answer whom he will support at the second round of the election.
