ArmInfo. "During the past parliamentary election I said that if the
Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) fails to receive the credence of
people, I won't advance my nominee at the presidential election. I am
very grateful to you for your confidence", Armenian Prime Minister,
Leader of the RPA, and currently a presidential candidate, Serzh
Sargsyan said during a meeting with residents of the town of
Echmiadzin, Armavir region.
"I am deeply convinced that we'll see a good future and Armenia will
develop faster in the near future", he stressed. According to him,
some candidates suggest that the number of the army should be decreased
to 10-15 thsd. "At the moment the Armenian army defends 1280 km of
borders. Just imagine what will happen to our country if our army
consists of 10 thsd people", Sargsyan said. "We'll never take such
steps that can weaken the strength of our army", he added. The prime
minister also stressed that the authorities intend to increase army
expenditures, as well as the military servicemen's salary with every
passing year.
Sargsyan compared the development of the country with a road which
can't be without obstacles. He assured that Armenians will live better
in 4 years. He added that over the next 20 days many candidates will
come to Echmiadzin and give populist promises. However, he expressed
hope that people themselves will be able to distinguish empty promises
from real ones. Touching upon the black PR, he noted that during the
pre- electoral campaign he is going to defame none of the candidates
not because these candidates' biography is pearly but because he'll
focus his attention on the country's future.
