    WHOSE SOCIAL PROBLEMS IS LABOR PARTY SOLVING?

    Lragir.am
    01 June 06

    The post of the chair of Health and Social Committee will be given
    to the United Labor Party, the political party of Gurgen Arsenyan,
    on an arrangement made inside the government. The leader of the ULP
    told the news reporter of Lragir.am on May 31 that they are going to
    nominate Mnatsakan Petrosyan, member of the ULP faction.

    This is very interesting because Mnatsakan Petrosyan is genuinely
    concerned about the social problems of citizens. Quite recently,
    the National Assembly passed the law on cutting the lump-sum tax
    on the import of cigars to Armenia. No doubt, the law improves the
    social state of cigar importers, cutting the lump-sum tax from 1.5
    million to half million drams per 1000 cigars. Moreover, the cigar
    importer is a citizen of Armenia, consequently Mnatsakan Petrosyan
    started thinking about the social state of the citizens long before
    taking up the post of chair of committee. It is also possible that
    he was nominated thanks to this.

    The point is that Mnatsakan Petrosyan is nominated by the ULP
    faction. It is said that Gurgen Arsenyan, the leader of the ULP
    faction, imports cigars to Armenia. Gurgen Arsenyan is also said to
    own the building built in front of the Conservatoire, which is going
    to be a cigar club. However, it is also possible that all this is an
    exaggerated picture of the possibilities of Gurgen Arsenyan, which
    is far from being true. Consequently, the nomination of Mnatsakan
    Petrosyan has nothing to do with the cigars, and it was done for
    the sake of the Republic of Armenia and for the sake of well-being
    of citizens.
