Yerevan /Mediamax/. The special gathering of the National-Democratic
Union (NDU) made a decision today on nominating its leader Vazgen
Manukian for the position of the Armenian President.
Mediamax reports that in his speech Vazgen Manukian stated that
"today it is necessary to evoke the public consciousness in Armenia
and to determine the dominant task for the whole nation".
According to him, "corruption became the basic driving force of
the state apparatus, and we have to reform the whole system, since
the shift of a leader will not allow getting rid of the deep-rooted
corruption".
Vazgen Manukian proposed the oppositional parties of Armenia to get
united around the idea of establishment of a free and democratic
state and stressed that he does not at that put the accent on his
own personality.
Leader of NDU noted that in case he is elected, he plans to carry
out constitutional changes on establishing a parliamentary republic
in Armenia and securing real independence of the judicial authority.
According to him, this work will take about 2-3 years, "after which
it will become possible to bravely hold free and democratic elections".
