    Armenian Prime Minister Andranik Markaryan is delighted with the
    government's five-year work, Mediamax has reported. Markaryan said
    this at today's press conference devoted to his five-year term in
    office as Armenian prime minister. The prime minister said that
    members of the government, irrespective of their party affiliation,
    had demonstrated their abilities of team work.

    "In 2000, when I was appointed prime minister, our main task was to
    ensure that the budget is fulfilled, but today the government is
    assuming ambitious tasks and conducting reforms in the pension and
    social security systems," Markaryan said.

    At the same time, the prime minister acknowledged that the fight
    against the shadow economy and corruption as well as the resolution of
    a number of social problems are far from being resolved.

    Speaking about the prospects for the republic's economic development,
    the head of the government expressed his concern about the emigration
    of young specialists from Armenia to European countries. The prime
    minister noted "the tendencies to lure" young talented specialists,
    saying that this situation could turn into a "crisis of specialists"
    for Armenia.
