Nikol Pashinyan stated at the Investment Forum "My Step for Aragatsotn Region" that this is the first full economic year in which the government headed by him is politically responsible for the economic situation.

"This year we are likely to have a plus-minus 7% economic growth, which is an important and quite high indicator in the EAEU and in the whole of Europe as a whole. Of course, it is understandable that this growth is not an indicator that we should feel very happy about. This year's economic indicators show that the economic ambitions we have are real and can come true. This is evidenced by the success of the new Eurobond issue, which is important in terms of Armenia's international economic image. It is important to note that compared to 2015, we have had a three percent reduction in access to funds, meaning that the interest rates have improved for our country, ”Nikol Pashinyan said.
According to him, Eurobonds of $ 500 million have been issued, but their real demand has reached $ 2 billion. In terms of strategic planning, according to Pashinyan, it is important to create transformation projects in Armenia, as there is an opportunity to finance them. “Armenia will conclude this year with a historic record in terms of international reserves. On December 31, we will have the highest rate of international reserves in the history of the Third Republic, which testifies to the stability of our country's financial system. This year, according to the data of the three quarters, the Central Bank of Armenia made $ 433 million in the Armenian market. That is, so many foreign currency resources have appeared, which is mainly related to tourism growth, and this opens up great opportunities for the RA citizens, ”the Prime Minister said, adding that as a result of the Eurobonds issuance by the international economic community has reduced the risk of Armenia by half, which makes the economic environment more favorable.

Nikol Pashinyan, however, did not say how much foreign reserves made after purchasing $ 433 million. In fact, this is a much more serious and important indicator than the fact that the CBA has made some purchases. As for the actual purchase, the prime minister was also obliged to sincerely confess that before the revolution in 2018, the foreign currency reserves of the Central Bank of the Republic of Armenia were sharply reduced. Thus, in December the reserves were reduced
$ 306 million. External currency reserves were in sharp decline, especially in April-May, when reserves declined by $ 233 million. In April alone, foreign reserves declined by more than $ 200 million. As a result, if the reserves amounted to $ 2 billion 259 million in December 2018, in January 2019 it was only $ 1 billion 994 million. Now we have to understand when the prime minister talks about replenishing $ 433 million in foreign reserves, what is the end result of that? Have we reached the pre-revolutionary level or are we still comforted by tomatoes?

By the way, the dollar replenishment of foreign reserves is not always positive, the economies that replenish reserves with precious metals, such as gold, are more robust and stable. The gold reserves of the RA foreign reserves were sold by the then President of the Central Bank Tigran Sargsyan. Since then, the price of gold has risen sharply in the international market. But this is another topic of conversation. Let us just note that Nikol Pashinyan, to put it mildly, was not right when he stated that the Central Bank set a historical record. If we could restore our gold reserves, that would be a real record. But no such thing happened. So what is said is a historical tomato, no more.

Defeat strong Bosnia and Herzegovina strong team, great opportunity to fight for second place, allowing them to play in the finals of the European Championship, get a good gift from the Bosniaks in the form of victory over the Finns and after that take a draw and play against the Lithuania team or idle.

And let no one be offended, not offended. To have a huge advantage over dwarf Liechtenstein at the start of the game - to score in the 19th minute, to have a huge advantage and to score in the second half is the least crime.

The Armenian team should have been punished. He should have been punished for knowing that Henrikh Mkhitaryan, having learned of the upcoming important games, gets a meaningless injury in the most innocent position, the head coach of the team cannot create a winning spirit even if he wins 1: 0.

This was a real shame. This was a real shame. With such a game we have no chance of succeeding with the Finns. It's a pity, and everything went so well.

In theory nothing has changed. We need to win the Finns just like we needed to win, but only now do we know that with this squad, this mind cannot even be a draw.

By the decree of RA President Armen Sargsyan, Lendrush Hovhannisyan has been appointed a judge of the Court of First Instance of Aragatsotn region.

“Taking into account Article 139 1 1, Article 166, 6 and the recommendation of the High Judicial Council dated October 3, 2019, RCB-66-Q-151,

Shirak Marz Court of First Instance Judge Lendrush Hovhannisyan to be appointed Judge of Aragatsotn Marz First Instance Court, "reads the presidential decree.

In Armenia it is impossible to have a population of 5 million without a clear immigration plan. Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Affairs of Armenia Smbat Saiyan stated this.


“The maternal potential is gradually diminishing in the country, which means that the number of potential births is decreasing as births are low in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Now we need programs not only to improve the demographic situation, but also to promote immigration to the country, ”he said.

Saiyan added that overall, demographic indicators are positive and the tendency of population decline is declining. If by January 1, 2018, the country's population had declined by 13,800, by January 1, 2019, that number was 7600.

He thinks it is possible to significantly improve the demographic situation and raise fertility rates.

The first plan is to increase the lump-sum benefits to the first child six times by July 2020. It will make 300,000 drams instead of the previous 55,000, and the amount provided to the second child will double to 150,000 instead of 300,000. In case of third and more children, the lump sum benefits will not change and will amount to 1 million and 1.5 million respectively.

“Villagers can receive a monthly child care allowance in the amount of 25,000 to 5,000 drams over two years. Now, only working moms get that money, ”she said.

The third project is supposed to support housing issues. In particular, mortgage buyers will be offered support due to the birth of a child.


Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Affairs of Armenia Smbat Saiyan
The state will insure the insufficient portion of the advance required by the bank. If the first or second child is born, the state will pay 10 percent of the mortgage amount in the provinces, 5 percent in the capital, and 50 percent in the provinces after the second child, and 25 percent in the capital.

Karen Chilingaryan, President of Consumer Consulting Center, wrote on his Facebook page: “From a series of environmental violations. Mher dust from the construction site on Mher Mkrtchyan Street spreads around the area, where outdoor cafes are located. The developer is not even interested in this situation. It is probably time for the Yerevan Municipality to inquire about such issues and to impose sanctions on violators. ”

Earlier we reported that the issue was also addressed by Yerevan Council of Elders member Gayane Melkom Melkomyan.
