YEREVAN. - Following the inaugural session of the National Assembly's
(NA) Standing Committee on Economic Affairs, Hayots Ashkharh daily
interviewed opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC) MP and former
PM Hrant Bagratyan. Below is an excerpt from the interview.
[NA ANC Faction leader] Levon Zurabyan stated that the ANC will vote
against the Government's program. Will you likewise be guided by
this logic?
If they introduce a sound, good program, we will discuss [it]. You
just recently saw what plans they brought forward. The shortcomings
were lot more than the positive. In general, we assume they cannot-and
do not even want to-introduce a professional program. If they bring
a professional program, we will vote in [its] favor.
How do you assess the course of the [aforesaid] session?
The problems were introduced at a very low level. They are uninformed
of what is happening in real life, and they are compelled to approve.
Do you see a chance to pursue the matters you have put forward?
I do not know. We still do not have a room, a printer, a computer,
[and] any opportunity to work.
