Prokhanov: Armenia had no chance to build powerful economy after 1991
YEREVAN, November 30. /ARKA/. Armenia didn't have any chance to build
powerful economy after the collapse of the Soviet Union, a famous
Russian politician, writer and publicist Alexander Prokhanov said
Friday.
`After 1991 when Armenia `fell out' from the `Red Empire,' like all
the other states it had no chances to build its own powerful economy.
In spite of some illusions which were being imposed on us, there were
no real chances for that,' Prokhanov said at a news conference in
Yerevan.
Armenia could survive only through the Western tranches, and it was
impossible to build powerful economy individually, separately from the
Soviet Empire, a huge mega machine, according to him.
As to the situation around the Armenian enterprises the ownerships of
which were transferred to Russia for debt redemption, Prokhanov said
these enterprises would reap no profits within the collapsed borders
of the Soviet Union.
`The situation will remain the same until the huge country, the
powerful system of states, is reformed,' the Russian writer said.
A number of the Armenian economists and politicians express discontent
over the slow-rate launch of the Armenian enterprises the ownership of
which had been transferred to Russia for $93-million debt redemption.
The agreement was signed in 2002. The ownership of the following
enterprises were transferred: Mars CJSC ( valued at $56.29 million),
Yerevan Mathematical Machines Research Institute CJSC ($2.75 million),
Yerevan Automated Control Systems Scientific Research Institute CJSC
($3.37 million), Yerevan Scientific Research Institute of Materials
Science CJSC ($0.35 million), property of Razdan TPP ($31 million).
There is no mean intention in it, he added.
`There is no Armeniaphobia in Russia. It is a catastrophe of the
torn-apart space, and egoism of Russia's economic elites, which
see no use in Armenia,' Prokhanov implied.
These elites are interested in making use of Belarus, where they
purchase oil communication, of Ukraine, where they can buy the
securities of corporations and then trade, and control deliveries and
transits by controlling economy, Prokhanov stated.
`However, this is a situation of yesterday, not today. Today, Russia's
political agenda includes recreation of these great spaces, and the
potential of the nations in these spaces, states, economies, transits
will be put into a very harmonic system. I hope, it will be more
harmonic system, than it was in the Soviet times.'
He noted that such projects exist.
`There are such people as Glazyev, who is building alternative economy
to the European Union, Dugin, who promotes the ideology of
Eurasianism, and Vladimir Putin. He proclaimed the Eurasian Union,'
the Russian writer resumed. -0-
