Gagik Beglaryan.
In his speech, the president congratulated Gagik Beglaryan and
all the representatives of the Council of Elders of Yerevan. 'As a
resident of Yerevan I am glad for setting up of this supreme body. I
wish you strength, a fruitful work and justification of hopes of your
electors', the president emphasized. According to Sargsyan, we shall
be able to further organize good election and disroot the vicious
phenomena. 'We have to learn lessons from these election. Moreover,
we must hold the following election in an organized manner for our
people and the world community to appreciate them not as 'meet in
general', but 'fully meet', the president said. He also said the
Constitutional right to form a power through elections in our system
of values should be an indisputable fact.
'The election should not be a trial for our state but an exam of the
need in the authorities' and political forces' election programmes -
this is our goal', the Armenian president said. He also emphasized that
he has great expectations from the newly elected mayor. 'We expect
for a new working style. The new mayor should not be just a head but
a leader responsible for both success and failures. The mayor should
observe all the laws, be closer to the people and love the capital
residents with all his heart', the president emphasized. Sargsyan is
sure that Gagik Beglaryan will be able to become such a mayor. 'Nice
traditions have been already formed in Yerevan which should be
preserved. But there are also vicious phenomena which are still
developing mechanically', - the president said and as an example
presented the fact how in Yerevan pedestrians often break traffic
rules. 'These are not ins and outs. The city culture starts from such
things. Over the last several months I allow myself to make a tour in
Yerevan by car late at night. I think that drivers' attitude to the
traffic rules has changed much, but unfortunately, the pedestrians'
attitude has not changed at all. They break traffic rules and often
blame drivers for that.
Such attitude should become a subject of serious work for us', -
Serzh Sargsyan said and added that the capital city is a visit card
of every republic.
