An investor will make an investment in a country where there is political stability, not a country where the government threatens to throw people against the asphalt. This is what leader of Prosperous Armenia Party Gagik Tsarukyan declared during the urgent session of the political party’s council today.

“Investors make investments in countries where there is trust, faith, respect, privileges and favorable conditions, and this is why investments decreased by two-and-a-half times in Armenia in 2019 compared with 2018,” he said.

Tsarukyan also touched upon the banking system and interest rates and stated that banks offer loans at interest rates that are too high for businesses and young families.

Tsarukyan also said his political party doesn’t want to throw dirt at the authorities and has always been ready to discuss and make proposals. “Whenever we offer the authorities to discuss issues, they say we’re offending them and that they know everything. The people and the country can’t be a testing ground for the authorities. Today we are simply compelled to discuss the issues and give evaluations. We can’t sit and do nothing since the government has failed in all sectors.”
