Armen Sarkissian does not seek the post of prime minister, but  believes that now he cannot use his full potential

ArmInfo.  Armenian President  Armen Sarkissian stated that he does not intend to be the Prime  Minister of Armenia. Sarkissian stated this in an interview with  Public Television.

He noted that 25 years ago he was prime minister, but now he is  president and he has clear obligations to the people of Armenia.  Sarkissian noted that in the parliamentary republic his powers are  somewhat limited and he cannot use all his potential for the benefit  of the people of the country.

At the same time, according to the President, now there is a  political and economic crisis in Armenia.  Moreover, the  international attitude towards Armenia and the Karabakh issue has  worsened, which is exactly what Azerbaijan has been striving for over  the past 30 years.

According to the President, all Armenians of the world suffered a  strong moral- psychological blow.  Sarkissian stressed that, in his  opinion, the institution of the president should become a platform  where the opposition and the authorities can discuss topics of  concern to them, and resolve all issues through negotiations. In  conclusion, the President stated that he is ready to cooperate with  any government and cabinet, stressing that he would be glad to use  all his potential for the good of Armenia.
