THEY RELY ON THEIR BIRTHPLACE

Politics

Over 400 people gathered in Sisian today to meet presidential candidate Arthur Baghdasarian.

“I come from Sisian and I hope that residents of Sisian will back Arthur Baghdasarian during the presidential election,” OYP Deputy Chairman Mher Shahgerdian addressed the public.

He dwelt on poverty reduction and massive emigration which is especially troublesome at frontier regions. Mher Shahgerdian says the most worrying is that people have lost every hope of better life.

In his speech Arthur Baghdasarian spoke of monopolistic control in the country. Unemployment is still a top-priority in Armenia but the Government takes no measures in this respect.

“If you take election bribes today and pay 6000 AMD per a sack of flour, tomorrow you will have to pay 12000 AMD per a sack,” Arthur Baghdasarian said while speaking of election bribes.

In case Arthur Baghdasarian is elected he will take efforts to reduce taxes and to raise money for tuition.
