YEREVAN. - Commenting on the news being disseminated with respect to
the obstacles being set before the well-known French Carrefour
hypermarket chain's entry into Armenia, Michael Weichert, the
Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Regional Director for South Caucasus, told
Zhamanak daily as follows:
``Carrefour could have an impact on politics and, in general, on the
country's economy. And those that have monopolies, those that have an
influence over the government, on the policy being conducted, perhaps
would fear having a competitor in this domain.
If your government ultimately prohibits Carrefour from coming to
Armenia, this could have an impact in connection with other investors,
since they would contemplate whether or not doing business [in
Armenia].'
According to him, the international donors would change their mind and
not make investments in Armenia,' Zhamanak writes.
