“After the election, only the eggs handed out before the election by the Republican Party will remain,” ANC MP Nikol Pashinyan made this promise in Ushi during the election campaign of the ANC. Today www.aravot.am inquired of the MP whether only eggs had remained. Nikol Pashinyan replied, “Here you are, this budget has already proved my
assessment. What does it mean? It means that the Republican majority, the Republican government, you know, this is not about political orientation, this is about civil sentiment that the Republican majority, government, establishment cannot give anything to Armenia anymore. Even if we take into account that it has given something, although I think that it hasn’t given anything, this mothballing process has always been under way. If you read carefully, you will see what has remained of Armenia. They say that the condition of Armenia was not good… no one says the condition of Armenia was good, but we talk about at least not worsening it. Let us go and take the indices of students in schools. Let us go and take… the government will reduce social expenses in 2013.”
In response to our observation that the country was in a bad condition, but the Republicans were not in a bad condition, Nikol Pashinyan said, “If a country, in which they were entrusted with power, has passed a period of mothballing, how can the Republican Party expand? It is just a fiction that the number of Republicans increases, it cannot increase. What increases? Does the rating of that party’s leader rise? It doesn’t, it is falling. I mean, the leader of that party has never had rating.”
