Government officials and politicians may avoid questions but nobody
should ever avoid questions, said the leader of the National Democratic
Party Vazgen Manukyan in a news conference on October 10 at the Friday
Club. He said this after the reporters had asked him to comment on
the first president Levon Ter-Petrosyan’s moves. Vazgen Manukyan
advised to ask these questions to him. Generally, Vazgen Manukyan
thinks the reporters should try to have Levon Ter-Petrosyan, Robert
Kocharyan, Serge Sargsyan and anyone else hold a news conference
and ask questions. The leader of the NDU thinks if politicians and
government officials are not open to the public, it is pointless to
hope for progress. Vazgen Manukyan said he also could have surrounded
himself with something non-ordinary, saying that he was the first
prime minister or the minister of defense who won the war, but he
can afford to be an ordinary person.
