YEREVAN. ` Armenia’s history does not have a prime minister, or a
president, who has not promised to create equal conditions for
everyone, opposition New Times party Chairman Aram Karapetyan told
Armenian News-NEWS.am.
Karapetyan stated the aforesaid commenting on Wednesday’s meeting
between PM Hovik Abrahamyan and representatives of the country’s big
businesses, during which they had spoken about ensuring equal
opportunities in Armenia’s economy.
`I consider this yet another manifestation of populism. There is no
real step which will show that there can be any positive change,’ he
stressed.
In his words, Armenia’s economy can change and develop solely through
systemic changes.
`The problem is that the development concept for today’s Armenia does
not allow the economy to develop.
`For [making] systemic changes in the economy you need to start from
the political, legislative, intellectual domains. It’s impossible to
just `pick up’ the economy and make systemic changes,’ Aram Karapetyan
noted, in particular.
