The former Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Artsakh Artur Aghabekyan addressed the question of the future president of Artsakh, stating who he sees in that position.

“Every time I am in the city of Stepanakert, I am constantly asked from the right and the left who will be the next president of Artsakh.

I publicly answer everyone. 2012 being the deputy prime minister of Artsakh and serving as prime minister Araik Harutyunyan knowing his ideas and vision about the future of Artsakh and its development, I believe that the next president of the country should be Arayik Harutyunyan, and now I declare that Arayik Harutyunyan has no alternative.

I will have many opportunities to talk about Araik Harutyunyan’s lack of an alternative in the near future,” he wrote on his Facebook page.

Let’s remind that yesterday the former commander of the Nagorno-Karabakh Armed Forces, hero of Artsakh Samvel Babayanannounced that he intends to participate in the 2020 presidential elections in Artsakh.
