The body governing Yerevan should be national. RA NA deputy Artsvik
Minasian heading the ARFD electoral roll in Yerevan Council of Elders
elections gave assurance at the May 26 press conference. Attaching
importance to the circumstance that the Mayor should be an opposition
representative, he said that in that case Yerevan administration can be
a counterbalance and a restraining force for the central authorities.
Mayor's candidate also attached importance to establishment of an
individual institution of Yerevan Ombudsman. He said that currently the
most part of complaints received by Ombudsman's Office is from Yerevan,
and it would be right if the capital city had its Ombudsman. In
A. Minasian's conviction, Yerevan Mayor should be a person devoted
to the idea of humam freedoms and rights, as well as should have a
resolution to fight corruption and protectionism.
Saying that he has invited for a dispute people heading RPA, BH, ANC
electoral rolls for several times, A. Minasian expressed an opinion
that their rejecting the invitation is insulting not only for him,
but also for the public. He said that the National Press Club has
also made an attempt to organize such a dispute, but that attempt
also failed. A. Minasian once more invited his rivals for a dispute
before the elections.
