“Armenian currency was devaluated against the U.S. dollar for 25 percent in March, 2009. The depositors lost over AMD 79.4 billion, while the banks lost nothing, having the support of the authorities and they compensated no loss to the depositors. The ANC will immediately establish the rights and losses of the cheated depositors, who suffered as a result of the sharp increase of the Armenian currency.
