YEREVAN. – Prosperous Armenia Party (PAP) former MP, businesswoman
Gohar Yenokyan does not plan on quitting the party and leave the
country.
Yenokyan herself told the aforesaid to Armenian News-NEWS.am,
responding to the information that the PAP members are gradually
quitting the party ranks, or are leaving Armenia.
“Never,” Yenokyan said, and added that she is very much troubled by
the emigration from the country.
“We need to stay [in Armenia] and create jobs so people would not
leave. By gradually leaving, whom will we leave this land and water? I
recently learned that seventy men went to work abroad from Armavir
[Region] in one day. And the reason is that they do not have hopes
that the damage which the weather caused [i.e., the recent hailstorm
in the region] will be compensated. But the families [certainly]
cannot go hungry,” Gohar Yenokyan noted, and suggested that avenues
need to be found to stop the emigration from Armenia.
