    Armenia is on way to lose 'existence'

    Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan received a "warm welcome" from
    Armenians living in Czech Republic.

    The crowd chanted slogans such as "We are against the Customs Union",
    "Stop the oligarchy", and "Serzhik, go!" outside the President's
    resident where Sargsyan met with his Czech colleague on January 30.

    Sargsyan's official visit to Czech Republic encouraged Armenians
    living in Prague to voice their protest publicly. Protestors
    dissatisfied with the serious problems like emigration and
    unemployment in their homeland called for on his resignation.

    Sargsyan in turn said at a press-conference in Prague that the
    decision on joining the CU was based on national interests.

    "If our decision is based on our national interests, then it must be
    put into a practice as soon as possible," Sargsyan said.

    Yerevan has decided to become a member of the CU, which came into
    existence on January 1, 2010, and signed a memorandum of cooperation
    with the Eurasian Economic Commission.

    Armenia hopes that joining the CU will save its almost dead economy
    and intends to complete all procedures for joining the Customs Union
    in 2014.

    Armenian diaspora continues to remain an economic and political power
    which supports Armenia. The Armenian expatriates recently accused
    their homeland's authorities of misusing the financial aid. The
    expatriates believe that the Armenian authorities do not spend public
    funds for the needs of the population.

    "The representatives of the Armenian authorities and government
    without any need buy new expensive cars which are used just for the
    needs of their families," Diaspora said recently.

    Armenian authorities seem to lose this power continuing to worsen the
    dead-end situation in the country. An unexpected "warm welcome" for
    Sargsyan in Prague allows predicting this.
