/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President Robert Kocharian issued a
statement on occasion of the presidential election, the leader's
press office reported.
"The Republic of Armenia held presidential election on February 19. The
election was free and fair and met the RA legislation and Armenia's
international commitments. I express my gratitude to all members of
election commissions, empowered persons and the voters for conduction
of the election on the proper level. It was a serious ordeal for our
developing democracy.
"Elections always cause political discrepancies, tensions and splits in
the society. But a just defeat in political struggle is an important
constituent of democracy. Each citizen should understand that the
President of Armenia can't divide society into "friends" and "foes". I
am confident that President-elect Serzh Sargsyan can unite the society
and create the atmosphere of mutual understanding and tolerance.
"Despite serious achievements, Armenia faces challenges. Our people
possess unused potential. The Republic of Armenia should become one of
the most competitive and rapidly developing states in the world. But
this process requires unification and consistent work."
