YEREVAN. – Armenia has all opportunities with its social-economical
indexes to achieve middle European quality of life during the next
20 years, Armenia President Serzh Sargsyan told Russian TV channel
Russia-24 on the 20 years of Armenian independence.
The president added that the reforms, which are currently implemented,
should be applied persistently. Armenia’s current budget is 10 times
more compared to pre-independent period.
“We believe now is the time to strengthen our state, improve our
social-economic indexes and well-being of our nation,” Sargsyan stated.
The president stressed Armenia is able to develop faster than it
does currently. It is not a secret that the world crisis also hit
Armenia, however, Armenia has overcome it since last year and has
even registered about 2% of GDP growth, Sargsyan noted.
Armenia has registered 5% growth in economy, over 12% in industry,
15% in agriculture and 7% in services sector for the past eight months.
Armenia’s economy has adapted to the maximum. It still develops and
registers good activity indexes, the president concluded.
