YEREVAN. – Armenian will develop whether the authorities like it or not, former MP and businessman Khachatur Sukiasyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am.

“I know that in many cases, people think that development in Armenia is not possible still for ten to twenty years,” Sukiasyan added. “But when you start substantiating the existing [economic] volumes, the indicators, you see that they are just saying [the aforementioned], but they are not delving into the development trends we [i.e. Armenia] have.”

As per the businessman, new approaches need to be developed to get out of this situation.

“Something else needs to be thought of,” he added. “[We need to] think of what kind of an agricultural culture to apply so that we will be able to get out with a benefit.”

Khachatur Sukiasyan stressed that he does see economic development trends, and the volume of progress in several domains in Armenia.
