Representatives on candidates’ election programs
The election program of presidential candidate, RPA leader, incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan is a program of a “national leader,” whose provisions should be carried out following the elections, Republican Party of Armenia (RPA) parliamentary faction member Hovhannes Sahakyan told a news conference.
Commenting on the course of the election campaign, Hovhannes Sahakyan noted that there are equal opportunities for all candidates.
Heritage party member Armen Martirosyan, for his part, commenting on the election program of Heritage party candidate Raffi Hovannisian, said it is an alternative program, with a focus on economy, human rights and judicial system.
“Raffi Hovannisian’s election program thoroughly presents radical reforms in governance, economy, democratic institutions and, in case they are implemented, Armenian citizens will have the right to live worthily in their homeland,” Martirosyan stated.
Sos Gimishyan, representative of presidential candidate, Liberty party leader Hrant Bagratyan, said that any candidate can write a program or even pay for someone to write it for him.
“Hrant Bagratyan’s election program is a reflection of his labor, experience and thought. This candidate thoroughly knows what mechanism should be used to solve the current problems. An election program should not be based on wishes. Hrant Bagratyan’s program is also different in this aspect,” Gimishyan concluded.
