YEREVAN, JANUARY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The external and internal threats
facing Armenia require large-scale system changes, is stated in the
pre-election program of Vahan Hovhannisian, the ARF Bureau member
nominated as candidate for the post of president of the RA.
"The wrong perception of liberal ideology and its extreme use, the
disregard of the basic point of a social state, and the reduction
of the state's role in free market regulation have resulted in the
current economic order when the state is governed through economic
groupings. They have monopolized the most profitable branches of
the economy and formed an economic system that is almost free of
competition, serves their interests and is guided by them," is said
in the program.
According to the candidate, the monopolies have ceased being an
economic phenomenon and have some influence on all spheres of society's
life. So establishment of a competitive economic order will be his
priority task.
According to V. Hovhannisian, the state policy will be aimed at
dissolution of the groupings with economic power. According to him,
the state should ensure equal conditions for economic entities and
should not interfere in their activities.
