    In preparing for the presidential election on July 19, 2007 the NKR
    parliament forces - the Democratic Party of Artsakh, the Azat Hayrenik
    Party, the ARF Dashnaktsutyun and Movement 88 - held consultations. The
    parties agreed that.

    Since the proclamation of NKR serious steps have been made towards
    laying the foundation of the independent state, creating a legitimate
    and effective government through presidential, parliamentary and
    local elections in different years, an effective army to defend
    the sovereignty of the country and security of people, which helped
    prevent the danger against the regular development of the country
    and adopt a line of democratic reforms, creation of a civil society
    and dominance of human rights, provide definite economic progress,
    implement a number of social programs, enact legislation for fostering
    liberal market economy, increasing investments. The experience of the
    independent state and the tendencies of its development were set down
    in the NKR Constitution adopted by a popular voting.

    Nevertheless, there are a number of unsolved problems in the
    country. The parties have discussed the situation and agreed on
    proceeding from the following priorities in drawing up the agenda
    for the upcoming years:

    - International recognition of the independence of NKR; - Legislative
    reforms necessitated by the Constitution; - Further democratization of
    the system of public administration, promotion of the mechanisms of
    division and counterbalance of the branches of power, establishment
    of institutions of public control over the government; - Drafting
    of an entitlement social policy and a national strategy of poverty
    reduction; - Drafting and introducing a new concept of finance and
    loan policy to foster economic development; - Improvement of the
    demographic state through resettlement and support to villages.

    Proceeding from this agenda, the parties think they can support a
    common presidential candidate, including a candidate nominated on a
    civil initiative, on the basis of agreement on the principles of his
    election program and the abovementioned priorities.

    The statement is open to all the other political forces to join:

    Democratic Party of Artsakh Chair of the Central Council Ashot Ghulyan

    Armenian Revolutionary Federation Representative of the Central
    Committee of Arsakh Arthur Mosiyan

    Azat Hayrenik Party Chair of the Central Council Arayik Harutiunyan
