Not even Nobel winner is able to develop Armenian economy – expert
Mon 14 April 2014 10:45 GMT | 15:45 Local Time
"Hovik Abrahamyan is known as a man close to Serzh Sargsyan and Robert Kocharyan. His appointment has been agreed upon by the power elite in Armenia,” MP, political expert Rasim Musabayov stated while commenting on Abrahamyan’s appointment as new prime minister of Armenia.
Abrahamyan is quite influential and rich person, the expert said. “The post of the speaker of the parliament was third in Armenia, but now it moved to the second position,” Musabayov added.
Abrahamyan worked as director of Artashat Wine and Brandy Factory, was Mayor of Artashat, governor of the Ararat region, deputy prime minister of Armenia, minister of territorial administration, chief of presidential administration, chairman of the National Assembly of the fourth convocation and held several other positions.
“It is a question of the future architecture of power, which is connected with the fact that Serzh Sargsyan offers to hand over the power only to Hovik Abrahamyan," said Musabayov.
The political expert pointed out that Abrahamyan’s appointment is a compromise by which Sargsyan in some form will not retain the levers of power, and Robert Kocharian will not return to politics.
The new prime minister will not be able to do something positive for development of Armenian economy as a previous one, the expert believes.
“If Armenia goes ahead with its current policy, it will be impossible to do anything worthwhile for its economy even if a Nobel winner holds this post.”
Once former Armenian President Levon Ter-Petrosyan said: “Carry out reforums if you want and don’t carry out if you don’t. Do want you want do to.”
If Armenia fails to settle the relations with Azerbaijan through the resolution of Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and its ties with Turkey, it will be impossible to do anything to tackle the recent situation in Armenia, the expert added.
