Yerevan, 30 May: The results of the [12 May] parliamentary election in
Armenia bring forth certainty that the policy of reforms will continue
in the republic. Armenian President Kocharyan said this today at the
sitting of the Nuclear Power Security Council.

The president believes that the ruling coalition in the country has
again proved its mandate of trust. Kocharyan presented new Prime
Minister Serzh Sargsyan to the participants and reminded that he
[Sargsyan] has long been in the government. He has worked in the
field of security, defence and interior since 1993.

"Serzh Sargsyan is familiar with all economic reforms, and there
is certainty in this context that the reforms will continue," the
president said. He added that after the constitutional reforms, the
Armenian government has greatly distanced from the president and is
mainly a subject that implements the economic policy in the country.
