RA state debt of 2015 will grow by 288 million dollars (video)
“Dollar rate will continue growing,”- predicts Economist Vilen Khachatryan. USA has cut the dollar printing, which has brought to the increase in the value of dollar and has had its influence on the prices of petroleum resources. In this case, Russia has decided to deal with China with yuan and ruble. It is a clear policy against dollar. Mr. Khachatryan thinks that ruble depreciation will also continue and will have its positive and negative influence on Armenia, “Transfers from Russia to Armenia will be reduced by 15-20 percent, but it will have its positive influence for importers, who will begin importing more products into Armenia from Russia with low prices.” The Economist can’t say whether Russia “will be able” to create ruble zone or not, “There has always been an idea of creation of new monetary value in Asia which will be counterbalance to Euro and dollar. The EU created Euro zone by overcoming many difficulties, will Russia manage it or not, it is early to say.” What relates to the implementation and debts of 2014 state budget of Armenia, Vilen Khachatryan informed, “In 2015 the budget will also have social inclination, as the former. It is intended that in 2014 our state debt will be 4.7 billion dollars, and in 2015 4.9 billion dollars, it means that state debt will grow by 288 million dollars.”
