"Who becomes the president he will sign the peace treaty," Armenian
Defense Minister Serge Sargsyan told journalists, Wednesday.

Asked if it will be he who will sign the treaty, Serge Sargsyan said: "
it is possible if you help holding free and fair elections in 2007." To
recap, the parliamentary elections are scheduled for 2007 in Armenia.

Commenting on the allegations by representatives of "Orinats Yerkir"
party, who said that the defense minister and the prime minister exert
pressure on the party, deprive "OY" leader Arthur Baghdsasaryan of air,
the minister said: "no one has a right to judge us and such statements
are just silly." "I assure you that I have more important things to
do than just read someone’s interviews or focus of provision of air
to someone," the minister said.
