    Naira Zohrabyan: Compulsory accumulative pension system is a state-level racket

    The compulsory accumulative pension system imposed in Armenia on Jan
    1 2014 is a state-level racket, member of Prosperous Armenia Party
    Naira Zohrabyan said during a rally of opposition parties and NGOs on
    Saturday.

    "The Government lies when it says that this system meets the people's
    interests. It meets the interests of the ruling regime, who just needs
    more money," Zohrabyan said.

    She urged all opposition forces to unite. "Only together will we be
    able to win the ruling regime and to build a different Armenia - a
    country that nobody will emigrate from any more," she said.

    Representatives of the I Am Against civic initiative said that the law
    imposing the system is contrary to Armenia's Constitution. "It will
    result in 6.6-13% cut in our wages. So, we must demand that the
    Government revoke this law," they said.

    Almost 7,000 people representing different parties, NGOs and civic
    initiatives have gathered in Liberty Square with slogans like We Are
    the Owners of Our Own Country!, We Are Against! and Unity!-
