Main goal of my presidency will be a viable and politically stable state

PanARMENIAN.Net - "The main goal of my presidency will be to have a viable, socially just, economically developed, and politically stable state. The strength of such a state to a greater extent is derivative from our policy towards the needs of the youth and socially vulnerable strata. The authorities have much to do in this field," said NKR president elect Bako Sahakyan during his inaugural address.



"Being guided by the Constitution we will continue to build a state, which will protect the interests of its citizens. Ethnic minorities will enjoy special protection.



We have a clear-cut agenda of challenges facing our republic. To address them we need to reshape the policy of socioeconomic development and put special emphasize on exploring investment resources directing them into the most perspective fields. Available scientific and intellectual potential will also serve this purpose.



International recognition of the Artsakh Republic, which is a pillar of our foreign policy, will give a serious impetus to the pace of our development. This is also in the interests of the region. NKR Defense Army will be ready to rebuff any attack against our state and society. The issues of army building, strengthening defense capacity, solving social problems of the servicemen will be always in the focus of attention," he said.
