Armenia's oligarchic system has become of a top-priority threat to
the power and state in general. This is a very ugly phenomenon, when
judging from the electoral lists, the oligarchs, in fact, remain in
the parliament, director of the Centre for Regional Research, political
expert, Richard Giragossian, said at today's press-conference.
Having analyzed how miserable taxes oligarchs pay and what share
of the national property they have concentrated in their hands, it
becomes clear that just oligarchs damage the country most of all, he
said. The expert also added that these oligarchs take a direct part in
the political processes of the country. "It is sad that the National
Assembly of the future convocation will not save us from them. And
when a politician being at the same time a bright representative
of oligarchs, goes to the meeting with voters carrying arms, such a
phenomenon conveys a great deal to me", - Giragossian said.
To recall, Giragossian hinted on the leader of the Prosperous Armenia
Party Gagik Tsarukyan, which was carrying arms during the meeting
with voters in Echmiadzin town.
