The economy is the force that sustains a country, it feeds people. What will happen if it collapses? This is what Gagik Tsarukyan, leader of the Prosperous Armenia Party, said during a march in Vanadzor, responding to journalists’ questions.
“One thing must be understood, the economy is neither pro-government nor opposition, neither pro-Russian nor pro-Western; it either develops or it falls apart immediately. Today we are on the brink of its collapse,” he noted.
Tsarukyan stated that he could resolve the issue of closed roads in a single day.
“The authorities boasted so much about having brought peace that they ended up unleashing an economic war with Russia. But there are no unsolvable problems. When you give me the opportunity, I will resolve both the issue of opening roads and the issue of economic development in a single day,” the Prosperous Armenia Party leader noted.
