    ARMENIA'S EX FM CALLS FOR POLITICAL COUNTERBALANCE

    PanARMENIAN.Net - Representative of Prosperous Armenia party, former
    foreign minister of Armenia Vartan Oskanian had an election meeting
    in Yerevan's central Kentron district on April 26.

    All political parties are reporting during elections on their
    activities, with regard to what they did and what they failed to do,
    Oskanian said. Meanwhile, "Armenia's ruling party not only gives no
    account for its failures, but lacks tolerance towards all those who
    try to assess it properly," he stated.

    Touching upon the economic situation in the country, politician
    mentioned the drastic drop in living standards since 2009, with
    additional 500000 poor emerging in Armenia, and a threefold rise in
    the country's external debt which became a heavy burden on the state
    budget curbing expansion opportunities for the future governments.

    "Your constitutional rights were violated. No large-scale program
    the authorities pledged to implement was realized or even launched:
    a new nuclear power station, Iran-Armenia railway, Iran-Armenia
    oil pipeline, North-South highway, All-Armenian Bank, technopark in
    Gyumri, Dilijan becoming a financial center - to mention just a few,"
    ex-minister declared.

    According to him, Prosperous Armenia aims to solve two major problems
    during the upcoming parliamentary elections.

    First, change the political situation in the parliament by lifting
    the one-party monopoly, and second, achieve political counterbalances.
