Yerevan /Mediamax/. Armenian presidential candidate Arman Melikian
stated in Yerevan today that he does not need a pre-election fund and
can "achieve good results without the use of advertisement posters,
since the people realizes the necessity of changes anyway".

Mediamax reports that Arman Melikian said today that the use of
media resource allows the candidates making their programs clear for
the electors.

The candidate expressed confidence that "the number of my supporters
grows each day".

Arman Melikian criticized the behavior of certain presidential
candidates, noting that "they are more involved in sorting out of
relations, rather than presenting their programs".

He informed that he received proposals to withdraw his candidature
in favor of this or that candidate, however he does not intend to
support anyone, since he is confident that neither of them will be
able to realize his pre-election program.
