YEREVAN, April 10. /ARKA/. The world crisis cannot be a reason or
excuse for failure to fulfill election pledges, said RA President Serzh
Sargsyan at a press-conference on the anniversary of his inauguration.

"If I knew a crisis would occur, then I would possibly have another
program with new ideas, but I, naturally, could not forecast such
a world crisis which is not a reason for refusal from pledges,"
said Sargsyan.

He noted his election pledges are intended for five years and expressed
assurance he will be able to fulfill them completely.

"Naturally some period changes may be maid in programs but I am very
certain we will implement the program completely", said the President.

Sargsyan stated he will continue the program of providing housing
to young lecturers of the Yerevan State University as part of his
election pledges.

He also said the Ministry of Sport and Youth Affairs has already
prepared the lists of young families who the Government intends to
assist in involving in the mortgage program.
