Armenian regions is a hindrance to socioeconomic development of the
country, Armenian Prime-Minister Serge Sargsian said in presenting
the government action program for 2008-2012 in the National Assembly
of the country.
He stressed the priority of proportionate development of the regions.
"Yerevan is overloaded with cultural, medical, industrial and financial
institutions - to the detriment of itself and at the expense of
other regions," Sargsian said. According to him, the government is
to discuss taking certain functions out of Yerevan.
