Serzh Sargsyan: The time has come and I am ready to answer all questions
Third President of Armenia Serzh Sargsyan says he is ready to reveal details from the Four-Day April War and answer all questions of reporters once the state of emergency is lifted in Armenia.
"Dear journalists, believe me, I am more interested in talking to the media than you, simply because I have nothing to hide. In fact, the time has come and I am ready to answer all questions,” said the ex-president, who was going to attend a special meeting of the National Assembly commission for the investigation of hostilities launched by Azerbaijan against Artsakh in April 2016.
Sargsyan said he had asked the commission to hold the session with his participation after the end of the state of emergency, but the commission considered it expedient to hold the session on April 16 as the state of emergency was extended.
"Therefore, in fact, I am deprived of that opportunity as the issue is so important that I will not satisfy you or the public by answering one to two questions,” he said “I promise that once the state of emergency is over, I will invite all the media outlets operating in Armenia and I will answer all questions related to the April events.”
“To settle the situation a little, I think that my office will issue a statement at the moment or in a few minutes. Please get acquainted with that statement and allow me to participate in the meeting of the commission,” Serzh Sargsyan said.
