ArmInfo. ‘Summing up the results of the decade of my activity on the
post of the president, I can say I am sorry for not being able to
prevent the incidents of 1 March in Yerevan’, President of Armenia
Robert Kocharyan said at a press conference, Thursday.
He said it is very difficult to assess what was done over the past
years.
‘However, I can state what was failed – prevention of the incidents
of 1 March. I say this with regret. However, I managed to prevent
more serious and graver aftermath though by tough measures>, he
said. He also added that he has no intention to retire after his
term. ‘I will take a short pause and then return to work. I don’t like
idleness. I can just state that I will work not in state service’,
the president said.
