    MORE THAN 32% OF ARMENIANS LIVING BELOW THE POVERTY LINE

    ARMENIA

    Citing data from the World Bank, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran
    Sargsyan stated that 32.5% of Armenia's population lives below the
    poverty line.

    "Today, Armenia is a poor country," said Tigran Sargsyan during a
    media forum titled "At the foot of Mount Ararat."

    The Prime Minister added that the actual level of poverty could be
    even higher ..

    Noting that the average per capita income (GNI) is only about $
    3000, the Prime Minister said that the construction of a democratic
    society in Armenia, it is necessary that this figure rises to more
    than $ 12,000.

    According to the Prime Minister, this is the first condition for the
    emergence of a middle class, which ties its future to the realization
    of his talents and opportunities, without relying solely on government
    support.
