Stepanakert,6 April: A new political party, For Moral Revival, has
emerged in the Nagornyy Karabakh Republic.

In its activity the party will proceed from the necessity to take as
soon as possible exclusive measures on drastic renewal of the entire
state and public system, the chairman of the party, Murad Petrosyan,
has told Arminfo news agency. The party has no right to live and act
as the rest of the countries in the former Soviet Union do: killing
time or moving at a turtle speed. The time limit is obvious. The
existing status-quo cannot go on for many years.

“For objective reasons we cannot become a powerful force, but we can
become a strong, self-disciplined and solid public body which elicits
respect and sympathy of the international community,” Petrosyan
said. The party will rely on people “seeking good and truth”, he said.
