    Ruling force unable to build up `just state' in Armenia - opposition rep

    At his meeting with journalists on Friday, Armenia's ex-premier, a
    member of the opposition Armenian National Congress (ANC)
    parliamentary group Hrant Bagratyan re-affirmed his opinion that the
    ruling political force is unable to build up a `just state' for lack
    of experts.

    `They remain at the same level, and nothing can be changed,' Bagratyan
    said. Armenia's parliament is now more interesting due to the ANC, he
    added.

    Although his speech can be considered a political one, it is based on
    facts, Bagratyan said.

    The major problem Armenia's parliament must deal with is cynicism, he
    said. To substantiate to words he said that the Armenian premier's
    answers to his questions show `he does not know anything.'

    The ANC must be in parliament for people to know that Armenia's
    foreign debt is $6.5bn rather than $4bn, Bagratyan said.

    He noted that $2.5bn is the private sector's share, with the lion's
    share owed by banks. So if the banks fail to pay off their debts, the
    government will have to do it.

    The government program is actually a tranche-based plan, Bagratyan said.

    The only strong point in the government program is that it envisages
    Armenian national music on the school curriculum.
