YEREVAN. - `If the specialists and sport leaders, [Armenian National
Olympic Committee] ANOC Chairman, Federation members, and the Ministry
[of Sport and Youth Affairs] demand my resignation, I will resign. But
I will demand the grounds as to where I have failed,' Armenia's
Weightlifting Federation President Samvel Khachatryan noted.
In response to NEWS.am Sport reporter's query as to why he is not
submitting his resignation, Khachatryan specifically said:
`I'm an elected person, an elected [Weightlifting Federation]
President. Our Weightlifting Federation's special session will take
place in September. If the session demands the resignation of the
Weightlifting Federation President, I will hand in my resignation. But
I will demand as to where the Weightlifting Federation, led by its
President, has failed. Everything I wanted, everything I applied for,
everything was done for our sportsmen. Our athletes receive very high
salaries already for a year. There is no failure, as such, either on
the part of ANOC, or of the Ministry, or even of the Federation.'
