It is time to work and not to grieve, "Prosperous Armenia" party
leader Gagik Tsarukyan told journalists asked if he is satisfied with
the parliamentary election results. "I makes no difference if I am
satisfied with the election results or not".

Certainly, I had great expectations. However, we participated in the
election not for mandates or posts but for fulfillment of programmes
for the welfare of the people. We shall nominate professionals for the
ministerial posts, but if they fail to live up to the people’s hopes,
we shall recall them", the deputy said.

He also said that the "Prosperous Armenia" party was claiming from
the beginning that it did not intend to give pre-electoral bribes to
receive the electors’ votes. To recall, upon the election results,
the "Prosperous Armenia" party received 25 deputy mandates: 18 by
proportional system and 7 by the majority one.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
