    PRESIDENT CALLS FOR EFFORTS TO REVIVE EMPTYING VILLAGE

    As part of his campaign tour to Armenia's regions, President Serzh
    Sargsyan met Thursday the voters of Yeghvard (Kotayk region) to
    address the community's problems and offer solutions.

    The president focused particularly on the migration problem, saying
    that he experiences a deep sorrow and bitterness every time when
    seeing an empty house in villages.

    "The rusty and closed locks in villages leave the most painful
    impression on me. An emptying village is the only thing that can drive
    me out of patience," he said. "We must never forget our friends who
    sacrificed their lives for the villages. But that is our problem and
    our grief, so we must find a solution."

    The president noted that no single problem in Armenia's communities
    has so far escaped his attention.

    "One doesn't have to cross thousands of miles to make the first step.

    I have served my nation, honestly doing my job. And meeting
    representatives of different communities today, I ask for reaffirming
    your vote which you cast in my favor to enable me to continue
    the activities that have remained unfinished or not succeeded,"
    Sargsyan said.

    The president promised to facilitate the lives in village communities
    in an effort to return the young generation home.

    He further spoke of agricultural reform plans. "We'll continue what
    we have done in the past two years, providing affordable loans at
    costs below the market prices to help solve the problem of fuels,
    seeds, as well as agricultural equipment," he said, adding that the
    government is now thinking of programs requiring cooperative efforts.

    Sargsyan emphasized that a good conduct of elections is extremely
    important for him. "The quality of elections is highly important for
    Armenia. I say after every election that we prefer a free voting,
    albeit with a lower percentage. A president elected in good, free and
    fair elections feels freer to speak in front of the world community,"
    he added.
