"We are obviously carriers of liberal ideas and we speak about second
phase of reforms. Followed by us everyone, even the ruling parties,
started to speak about it. This is enough to justify our existence
in the political realm," Levon Martirosyan, leader of United Liberal,
National Party (MIAK) believes.

Asked if it is a possibile that MIAK disappears after the elections
being a party of three months history, Martirosyan said they plan to
stay in politics for long. He said parties with 10 years of history
failed to change anything in the country. "Most frequently, personal
relations are more decisive than ideas," he said.
