ARMENIA'S AUTHORITIES DECEIVED PUBLIC, OPPOSITIONIST SAYS
18:24 ~U 10.12.13
The opposition political figure Gurgen Yeghiazaryan believes that
Armenia's authorities deceived the public by concealing ArmRusgasprom's
$300m debt to Russian Gazprom.
"The authorities say, 'We are joining the Customs Union so as the gas
price should not rise. Are you well aware of what you are speaking of?
You have signed the agreement, so why are you playing the fool?"
Yeghiazaryan said addressing Armenia's authorities.
"These people are actually placing the debt burden on Armenia's
shoulders. And our children and grandchildren will have to pay the
interests, with our shoestring budget," Yeghiazaryan said.
"The minister of energy says one thing, [the ruling party MP] Galust
Sahakyan say a different thing. They are all lying," he added.
With respect to the compulsory pension contributions system to be
introduced in Armenia from January 1, 2014, Yeghiazaryan said that
Armenia is not a country for experiments.
"How can we speak of pension accumulation funds without having
economy, with emigration and our insatiable authorities? They will
flee abroad, have plastic surgery and live on their islands with the
amassed wealth."
