    SERZH SARKISIAN: `DEMOCRACY HAS NO ALTERNATIVE'
    [06:29 pm] 14 January, 2008

    `Armenia should become a mighty and democratic
    country with efficient governance focusing on a human
    being and his inevitable rights as key elements of the
    country.' This is a quotation from presidential
    candidate Serzh Sarkissian's pre-election programme.

    The Armenian Premier holding different top-ranked
    positions for the past 16 years today promises a
    dignified life. `Armenia will have authorities
    enjoying people's confidence. Everybody will exercise
    equal rights stipulated by the law. No artificial
    barriers will be set up between the state and
    citizens. There will be no privileged and
    underprivileged in the country we are striving for.
    People will live in mutual respect, love and
    indulgence. Education should be high-priority for the
    country.'

    Serzh Sarkissian will fulfill his promises after
    winning the presidential election.

    The programme introduced by the Armenian Premier
    consists of eight pages.

    Edward Sharmazanov says that the programme highlights
    the conduct of free, fair and transparent elections in
    Armenia meeting democratic standards. `We must do our
    best to start a tradition of democratic elections in
    the country,' the Spokesman of Serzh Sarkissian's
    pre-election headquarters told A1+.

    `The PM's stance over the Karabakh issue has remained
    unchanged over the past five years.

    Vazgen Sargsian, Andranik Margarian and Serzh
    Sarkissian held the same stance in view of the
    Karabakh conflict. Firstly, Atrsakh's right to
    self-determination must be recognized world-wide.
    Secondly, we should ensure security of NKR borders and
    residents. And thirdly, NKR and Armenia should have a
    common frontier to avert NKR's conversion into an
    enclave,' Sharmazanov says.

    We shall not compromise over these tangible issues.
    The PM's programme also highlights strengthening of
    multi-lateral relations within the framework of
    Euro-integration, balanced collaboration with the
    Russian Federation, USA and European countries. The
    core of the programme is the motto, `democracy has no
    alternative,' Sharmazanov concluded.
