The first task after the change of power in Armenia should be the change of the country's government structure," Armenia]s ex-president Serzh Sargsyan said at the meeting wit supporters of "The Salute of Honour and Respect" pre-election bloc. 

In Sargsyan's words, at least three ministries – the ministry of culture, agriculture and diaspora  – should be re-established as standalone entities. 

As to the security challenges Armenia faces, Sargsyan said: "First, we must replace the  people who are in charge of security issues – the defense minister, the Chief of the General Staff. From one hand we should bring back the people who are specialists and understand the role of the Army and then gradually implement reforms, form trust with our allies, since without the military-technical assistance from them we may not be able to restore and have a combat-ready army," Sargsyan said.
