11 political forces have published their pre-election programs for the extraordinary RA NA elections, which they should present to RA citizens and debate with their competitors over the next two weeks.

The program of the Republican Party of Armenia was fully presented on their pre-election website. According to the preface, the RPA emphasizes that after the change of power, the new government not only does not fulfill the promises made to the people, not only does not ensure the development of Armenia’s economy, the increase in the level of well-being of compatriots, does not strengthen the security of Armenia and Artsakh and the international ranking of our country, but also causes many new concerns and aggravates the situation inside and around Armenia with its incompetent activities.

“In the current situation, we consider it our political and civic duty to voice our concerns, to speak directly and directly about the mistakes and omissions of the new government, which can become fatal for the statehood of Armenia and the future of Artsakh,” the program states. RPA lists why they should be elected.

“We have history, knowledge and experience, we know and have accepted our mistakes, we are ready to serve the Motherland.”

In the pre-election program “My Step” alliance states that in the next five years their activities will be aimed at realizing an economic revolution, to achieve which the continuous increase in the security level of RA and the Republic of Artsakh, the international recognition of Artsakh’s right to self-determination, the encouragement of work and investments, overcoming poverty through work and education, ensuring the rule of law, the continuous increase in welfare and the continuous increase in the efficiency of public spending are of key importance.

The alliance’s pre-election program states that not only the continuous increase in the combat capability of the Armed Forces, special services and the diplomatic corps, but also the growth of the population of Armenia, is of primary importance for the national security of the Republic of Armenia, according to which the population of the Republic of Armenia should double in the next 20 years. “My step” considers the cessation of visible emigration from RA, the initiation of a smooth process of repatriation of Armenians representing the old and new diaspora to RA, and the increase in birth rate as the most important means of solving this problem.

The pre-election program of the “My Step” alliance, which is considered the favorite of the election campaign, states that the implementation of any program for the settlement of the Artsakh issue is possible only with the restoration of the status of Artsakh as a full party to the negotiations, without whose consent any option for the settlement of the issue cannot be considered de jure.

In the field of foreign policy, the steps of “My step” will be aimed at establishing neighborly, mutually beneficial relations with all states and giving a new breath.
