SEIRANYAN EXPLAINS FUNCTIONS OF PRESIDENT’S ADVISER
`The main role of the adviser to the president of the Republic is to
give advise on economic issues to the president and not to this or
that political force. He is paid for that function by the taxpayers,’
Spartak Seiranyan, Armenian Revolutionary Federation (Dashnakcutiun)
member, told a news conference today speaking about the recent
statement made by Vahram Nersisyants that `Dashnakcutiun should be
guided by its socialist ideology and not touch liberal forces because
by doing so they will have better chance to fight corruption.’
He regrets that Nersisyants does not consider the fact that
Dashnakcutiun pursues the programs of the coalition government and not
the party. `May be Mr. Nersisyants did not have time to learn about
social-democratic theories, particularly connected with economy,’
Seiranyan comments.
Speaking about corruption in general Seiranyan said that Dashnakcutiun
favored a body separate from the government whereas Prime Minister
Andranik Margaryan chairs the corruption board today. /Panorama.am/
