In a meeting with the Armenian entrepreneurs in Los Angeles, as the
official press release informed, Serzh Sargsyan noted that in the
past twenty years the potential of the citizens of Armenia has not
been used fully.
It is a hint that Armenia could have reached greater success, even
in the blockade that Armenia has been in over its independence, had
the potential of the citizens been used at full. The reason why this
potential has not been used or has not been used appropriately seems
to be known to everyone. This potential was stifled in election fraud,
criminal and oligarchic economic relations, corruption covering the
country like weeds.
To use the potential of the citizens at full, all these hindrances
should be eliminated. Serzh Sargsyan is certainly aware of this but
is he ready to take dynamic steps in this direction? Is he ready to
dissolve the criminal and oligarchic economy?
He invites Diaspora entrepreneurs to have greater participation in
the economy of Armenia, generally in the development of the economy
of Armenia. However, Sargsyan who sends this invitation must be ready
to reduce the participation of Ruben Hairapetyan, his brother Sashik
Sargsyan, Samvel Alexanyan and other similar oligarchs.
After all, those Diaspora entrepreneurs and these oligarchs cannot
coexist: either the Diasporan entrepreneurs will have to get used to
the rules and ways of the oligarchy, or the oligarchy will have to
leave. Maybe Serzh Sargsyan thinks that the more Diaspora entrepreneurs
come to Armenia, the more dominant this quality will be in the economy
and public life, ousting the oligarchy. However, this is an illusion,
to put it mildly, because the Diaspora businessmen will come to Armenia
only after this oligarchy is ousted. Because it is necessary to oust
that oligarchy to use the potential of the citizens of Armenia. This
step directed at using the potential of the citizens of Armenia will
be a signal for Diaspora and any serious foreign businessman to make
investments in Armenia.
For the time being, Serzh and Tigran Sargsyan only speak about fight on
corruption, the same oligarchy is made to pass legislation on fight on
themselves first ensuring them that these laws will never be enforced.
