Oskanyan, former Foreign Minister, member of the Prosperous Armenia Party, has spoken out against the current policy. He noted the role of parliamentary polls on May 6 and analyzed the situation in the country.
The former minister pointed out the poor socio-economic situation and has not improved in the last 4 years. The GDP dropped, compared with 2008, poverty increased by half a million people, foreign debt will exceed $4 billion by the end of the year, increase of income is below the inflation rate, Armenia Today reports.
Oskanyan pointed out 5 reasons for such problems. Firstly, the government has no forecasting skills. Secondly, there is no republican or regional program. The Armenia-Iran Railway, the new nuclear power plant, the North-South Highway, the All-Armenian Bank, the Technical Park in Gyumri, have not been realized. Thirdly, management is inefficient. Fourthly, the government did not realize reforms of the second and third generations. Fifthly, economic solutions were wrong. High inflation levels have not been prevented in the last 4 years.
