YEREVAN, April 5. /ARKA/. Armenia's president Serzh Sargsyan met with
the owner of Armavia air company Mikhail Baghdasarov Thursday, Haykakan
Zhamanak (Armenian Time) newspaper says referring to some sources.
"The same sources say that Baghdasarov is trying to clarify his
further steps and public statements. Baghdasarov keeps silence for
the time being and is not commenting on notorious processes taking
place with his businesses and the scandalous bankruptcy of Armavia",
the newspaper says.
According to the latest allegations in Armenian mass media, Baghdasarov
is planning to sell his cement factory, Mika Cement.
Allegedly, he has also problems in paying salaries to the staffs of
his petrol station chain.
Armavia's press office, in fact, has not refuted the information about
Baghdasarov's plans to sell Armenian businesses and leave the country,
and stressed that "everything is sold and bought in business", the
newspaper says.
Yet, the company's press office denied that the businessman is planning
to build a new airport in Romania.
"You better ask whoever created the rumor", the press office told
the newspaper.
The press office also said that Armavia is now recording the passengers
to whom it should refund the tickets in April. -0--
