EQUAL CONDITIONS ARE CREATED FOR ALL CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENCY IN NKR,
NKR PRESIDENT’S ADVISER ASSURES

YEREVAN, JULY 4, NOYAN TAPAN. Arman Melikian, the NKR President’s
Adviser, at the July 4 press conference, said that equal conditions
have been created for all candidates in the campaign of NKR
presidential elections, and the opinion that allegedly the campaign’s
coverage is one-sided does not correspond to reality.

In his opinion, it will be right to prevent any influence on the
upcoming presidential elections, for instance, the results of the
survey conducted by sociologist Aharon Adibekian. "The Nagorno Karabakh
people is able to make a choice on its own, but surprisingly the
passions are more inflamed over that issue in Armenia than in Nagorno
Karabakh," he said.

A. Melikian said that Karabakh’s issues are not solved in Yerevan.
Meanwhile he said that inevitably Armenia influences Karabakh and vice
versa. "We cannot do without each other, we have been merged, and our
existence in the future is also conditioned by the efficiency of our
cooperation," the NKR President’s Adviser said. In his words, it is
natural that Karabakh cannot be left out of Armenian society’s
attention. However, he said, it is not acceptable that this interest
receives some form. "We should find the way of choosing right forms,"
A. Melikian said.
