YEREVAN. – This summer Armenia has a key issue to solve: getting out from under the domination of foreign gods, opposition member and former Karabakh Committee member Ashot Manucharyan said during a press conference on Thursday.

In his words, Armenia is governed by the policy conducted from abroad, since it is “under the domination of foreign gods.”

And in order to come out of this situation, Manucharyan proposed the passing to self-governance which, as per the politician, Armenia had twenty years ago but lost.   

According to him, incumbent President Serzh Sargsyan will remain in office after the 2013 presidential elections, and, whether or not the Prosperous Armenia Party will nominate its own presidential candidate, this will not change the system. 

“The foreign powers must decide upon this,” said Ashot Manucharyan, and noted that diversity will be maintained in the country, as the pro-Russian and the pro-American forces will remain
