Former Armenian president marks 60th birthday
31 August 2014 - 12:45pm
Former Armenian president Robert Kocharyan marks his 60th birthday
today. On the threshold of this jubilee Kocharyan granted an interview
to the Noah's Ark newspaper, during which he noted that he did not
rule out a possible return to power.
Now the former president is doing business, surfing, hunting, skiing
and reading.
According to Kocharyan, one of best books he read in the recent past
was "Why Nations Fail" by Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson.
Daron Acemoglu is a Turkish-American economist from the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology. James Robinson is political scientist from
Harvard University. Their book applies insights from institutional
economics, development economics and economic history to answer why
nations develop differently, with some succeeding in the accumulation
of power and prosperity, while others fail.
Robert Kocharyan is believed to be an Armenian nationalist, who once
said that Armenians have nothing to do with "Transcaucasian Turks".
