President Serzh Sargsyan attended the gathering of RPA Youth Organization
The President of Armenia, Chairman of the Republican Party Council, Serzh Sargsyan visited the participants of the RPA Youth Organization regular gathering in Tsakhkadzor.
The three-day “Future in our hands” conference drew together one hundred fifty delegates of the party’s regional youth organizations.
Serzh Sargsyan has been present at the implementation of the RPA youth related programs and discussions pertaining to the cooperation with regional organizations.
Along with the internal administrative issues, in the presence of the President of Armenia lively and comprehensive discussions were held on the currently debated issues such as the Armenian-Turkish relations, NK peace process, state-society dialogue, information security, education and science, state youth policy, and Diaspora related issues.
Serzh Sargsyan urged the young people to frankly express their concerns and ideas regarding the contentious issues and answered many questions raised by them.
Speaking about the Armenian-Turkish relations, which top the agenda of the gathering, President Sargsyan said that Armenia has entered a difficult but necessary process in which we are led by the principle of carefully weighing our steps. “The easiest thing to do is to do nothing. The difficult thing is to propose a solution for the problem and to achieve success,” the President of Armenia said.
Serzh Sargsyan noted that he was happy to see that the participants of the gathering were concerned not only with the youth related issues. The President stressed the importance of the youth in becoming a moving force behind the reforms and of their ability not only to signal the problems but also to find solutions. “You should scrutinize any problem not on just “black-and-white” level but try to examine it meticulously, and understand its very essence. Only then it will be possible to find durable solutions. Gatherings such as this one are a good opportunity to juxtapose different viewpoints and approaches and reach sound conclusions,” President Sargsyan noted.
Young republicans thanked the President of Armenia for the candid discussion and assured that they were ready to bring their best to the resolution of the problems facing the state and society.
