YEREVAN, APRIL 29, ARMENPRESS: Ara Nranian, a parliament member from
the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF), told a news conference
today that the government should undertake to find swift solutions
to an array of pressing problems if it wants to become the government
of national accord.

He said the government’s long-term goals may seem hard to be
implemented by a small country like Armenia, but according to him,
they can ensure an environment of public unity and solidarity.

He said the ARF stands ready to do everything in its power to help
archive these objectives. According to him, the focus should be on
creating health, tourism and educational center and repatriation of
ethnic Armenians to their homeland.

Ara Nranian then praised the new prime minister Tigran Sarkisian
for highlighting the role of skilled and seasoned professionals. He
said the new government fits into Tigran Sarkisian’s concept that
government officials should serve examples in all respects.

"The government should become a provider of quality services and not
simply holder of some functions and not everything should be handed
to private sector," he said.

He said the ARF remains an advocate of strong anti-corruption policy.
