Member of the Armenian National Congress (HAK) Hrant Bagratyan says Serzh Sargsyan has to be sued for not fulfilling the pledges that he made during his election campaign.

"I promise you that the first law that we will propose once we make it to the parliament will be to pass a law on punishing him," said Bagratyan.

During a meeting with voters in Kapan, ex-prime minister Hrant Bagratyan presented the pledges that the incumbent president had made during his election campaign and mentioned that there was one thing that the incumbent president hadn't pledged, but for which there are the results.

"The suicide rate in Armenia has increased by 40 times."

Hrant Bagratyan doesn't even want to hear that Serzh Sargsyan seized power in the year of the global financial-economic crisis. "The global financial-economic crisis lasted for only a year."

To fix the situation, Bagratyan says the only thing to do is to remove the taxes from the shady economy, which will help make the state budget go from being 2.5 billion dollars to 4 billion dollars.
