“We end the year with high rates of poverty” (video)
“Everything is bad in Armenia,”- is sure the former President of Central Bank, economist Bagrat Asatryan. “This year 3.5 percent economic increase has been registered, which can’t provide any results to our country, we need at least 7 percent increase. We end the year with higher rates of poverty.” Mr. Asatryan thinks that the economic situation in the country will be worse in the coming year and we mustn’t believe that it has external reasons, “The authorities have endangered our financial stability with their activities. The situation is so bad that the authorities don’t have a right to go on holidays for 15 days, they must work.” What relates to Hovik Abrahamyan’s tours in the supermarkets, the former President of the CB noted, “The Government hasn’t done anything. Prime Minister is an economic project and idea.”
