They take state property and sell their property in a corrupt way- Gevorg Gorgisyan (video)
In the National Assembly, the issue of the annual 2016 report of the Implementation of the State Property Privatization 2006-2007 was discussed. It was presented by Arman Sahakyan, Head of State Property Management Department under the RA. Gevorg Gorgisyan, secretary of the Yelk faction, asked him: “We often hear that state property has been sold because the state is a bad manager, but we also see bankrupt institutions. Don’t you think that the exploiters are not right ones, and those decision makers should be punished too? These people actually took over the property, sold their property in a corrupt way, and as a result, these objects disappeared.” In response, Arman Sahakyan mentioned that the issue is about only 3 companies. “In your draft, however, there are 11 state institutions in which a bankruptcy process has begun. So, why are these structures appeared in this list?” He also adds, “I can present the bankruptcy processes of all of these three companies very profoundly.” Vardan Bostanjyan, a member of Properious Armenia faction, first wondered why this has been confirmed only now. “I also want to address the issue when the state property is alienated at symbolic prices. And one day we see that it is rented immediately and the annual rent is more expensive than the price that was paid. Will this practice disappear or not?” Arman Sahakyan stated: “In 2011, we did not have such cases. All the alienations represent a market value, after which investments are made. There were cases when there was no attractive property, but we created conditions for investors that would be more attractive for them.”
