Paruyr Hayrikyan: Armenia is headed by Putin’s puppet (video)
The anti-political path is one of the biggest problems imposed on Armenians in the last three years, says the chairman of the Union for National Self-Determination (AIM). Paruyr Hayrikyan does not exclude that the US and Europe might create a common economic zone that will outstrip Russia's economy. He regrets to say that Armenia was deprived of a 70- million market because its decision to join the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union. Speaking about the tragic incident in Gyumri that left six members of a family killed in their home, Mr Hayrikyan said, “If high-ranking officials in your country speak about the supremacy of the Constitution of another country [Russia], it comes to prove that your country is occupied.” The AIM chairman says law enforcement agencies in Armenia are ‘stupid people who do not do their job properly.’ “Armenia does not have a leader as such, the country is headed by Putin’s puppet,” he said adding that Putin has a large army of lawyers in Armenia who settle many problems here. “Over 900 people are brutally killed in Russia annually. Now Russians got accustomed to killing Armenians in their homes,” he said in conclusion.
