ACCORDING TO GAGIK TSARUKIAN, NOT ANYONE HAS MORAL RIGHT TO BE A
CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENCY

YEREVAN, DECEMBER 27, NOYAN TAPAN. "Not anyone has the moral right to
be a candidate for presidency," Gagik Tsarukian, the Chairman of the
Bargavach Hayastan (Prosperous Armenia) party, stated during his
December 27 meeting with journalists. According to him, this is not the
post for which anyone can nominate his candidature. In response to the
question of whether Serge Sargsian’s chances would be so big unless he
supported the latter, G. Tsarukian said: "Of course, no."

Touching upon the checkings in the enterprises belonging to the family
of RA National Assembly independent deputy Khachatur Sukiasian carried
out by tax services, G. Tsarukian said that he has warm relations with
K. Sukiasian, he is his friend, but brothers move in different
directions in politics. "I promoted political activity and K. Sukiasian
could cooperate with me, but no businessman, including K. Sukiasian,
cooperated with me. Now he has a program he wishes to implement. Every
man has the right to be engaged in politics and maybe he will be more
helpful to his country and people with his programs," G. Tsarukian said.
