YEREVAN. – Armenia’s opposition ARF Dashnaktsutyun Party is starting the “We will Live in Our Country” program, whose objective is to stop emigration from the country.  

ARF Supreme Body member and ARF National Assembly Faction leader Armen Rustamyan noted the aforesaid during a press conference on Tuesday.  

He stressed that stopping emigration forthwith is indispensable for Armenia’s future.  

“Proceeding from this, the ARF is working on this program for several months; we have held serious discussions. Now, it is necessary to start a new phase, a new stage,” Rustamyan said. 

He noted that emigration is a complex problem, and the problems that cause emigration need to be addressed. As per the opposition MP, Armenia’s present-day political system does not enable to address these problems immediately, and the reason is the, “similitude of the ruling party and the state.” 

“We are losing blood, and we cannot allow it to result in a complete blood loss. And the organism is our country, our state, our homeland,” Rustamyan stated.    

He noted that it will be wrong to wait for the materialization of the plan for a power change, and that is why it is necessary to take priority steps. As per Armen Rustamyan, ARF Dashnaktsutyun has summarized all this in seven points, and the latter are the “prescription” for solving the accumulated problems.
