NO PROGRESS IN ARMENIA LAST YEAR - OPPOSITION MP
18:05 * 04.02.14
Armenian National Congress (ANC) parliamentary group member Stepan
Demirchyan spoke of last year in Parliament on Tuesday.
No progress was recorded last year, he said and demanded that the
government put an end to "this strategic and cultural policy."
"Emigration, unemployment, poverty, a sharp decline in investments
and in SMBs, a higher foreign debt - this is the result of this
socio-economic policy," Demirchyan said.
The government-forecast economic growth did not become a reality
last year.
As to the Armenian-Russian gas agreement, Demirchyan said:
"The government had for a long time concealed the gas price rise from
the public. Like his predecessor, the incumbent premier appears to
aim at getting rid of all the facilities of strategic importance. And
the Vorotan hydropower complex proved next in turn. It was sold at
a cheap price and Armenia was deprived of its own energy-generating
facilities. We condemn this shady deal."
