ArmInfo. First Armenian president, contender to the presidential post
of Armenia, Levon Ter-Petrosyan, when making a speech at the election
meeting in town of Noyemberyian, Tavush region, February 1, criticized
the present authorities for having closed the Bagratashen wholesale
commodity market on the Armenian-Georgian border.
According to the presidential candidate, the authorities closed the
market in Bagratashen because they couldn't stand the existence of any
loophole in the economic life, which wasn't completely controlled by
them. At the same time, according to Levon Ter-Petrosyan, the market's
existence would make it possible to meet minimal financial demands of
the majority of families in the region at least, even if not live
properly. "Presently, many of them have to leave the country", Levon
Ter-Petrosyan said.
Another target of his criticism became the situation in the public
sector, which, according to the candidate, doesn't exist as such. In
particular, Levon Ter- Petrosyan said the situation is inadmissible
when the principle of contractual work is applied for all the public
sector employees. This makes it possible to fire people from work at
any moment. "In this way, the present authorities bind the people
working in the public sector with slavish ties, compelling them to
serve", Levon Ter-Petrosyan emphasized.
