During the press conference MIAK members had one more chance to present the MIAK programme, slogans, strategy, and party’s “to do” list.  It was mentioned that MIAK submitted a serious claim to enter the political arena and is going to successfully participate in the upcoming National Assembly elections and all political processes taking place in Armenia.  

Garik Martirosyan, who occupied the second position in the MIAK proportional list, announced that he would be removing his candidacy based on a joint decision with the MIAK Board.  “My presence in the list in a sense makes it harder to disclose MIAK`s full potential, since rather a great portion of attention is directed to my modest self.  I fully share MIAK`s ideas and programme and will strongly support the process of ensuring the party’s strengthening and success.  I am also calling upon all reform-oriented people and youth in particular to enroll in MIAK and support it, since this is a new generation force which will undoubtedly be successful in its activities and will promote the process of strengthening and development of our Motherland.”
