‘Suppose we leave EAEU, what shall we replace it with? I want to understand’: Aram Sargsyan

August 25,2017 15:40

In the Autumn “Yelq” will initiate a procedure to leave the Eurasian Economic Union, will you be against it? Will you have any kind of participation in it? To the mentioned question the president of the Democratic Party of Armenia Aram Sargsyan replied: “First and foremost, I am for that such serious questions are put to a serious discussion. Let us understand, suppose we leave, what will we replace it with? I want to understand. I want to see what will be in place of it or what opportunities we have for creating a better economic system. If such arguments exist, let them represent, otherwise, I do not like – “let’s leave”, we are not in a kindergarten to make such changes one after the other. As regards the EU, they do not live by more European values than me, I assure you, there are few people, I see at least 2-3 countries in Europe every time, I see how and what it is, I study, we have not reached the level for them to accept us. They are states to which one is not able to reach, Georgia has been trying for 10 years, it does not succeed.”

To our overview implying that you at least try to become better, to cooperate with more democratic countries, Aram Sargsyan responded: “I am for, but I want to see with what we are going forward. Do you understand the state of our agriculture? Do you understand that we have not done anything? It is 20 years we tell them to create an agricultural complex, all agriculture of the Republic of Armenia should be gathered within a complex. We have not done that, we have left this poor villager with his land alone. He gets the harvest and does not know where to sell it. Look at Bulgaria’s example, it entered the EU, they spoiled its agriculture, they told its tomatoes, peppers, etc. do not correspond to their standards, now shall we go to there with these conditions? Europe has its own problems, I have just returned from the place where terrorist attacks were made. I assure you that it will create another problem, therefore making a decision is not that easy – oh, I do not like, I want to leave, if we get rid of this it will be good. It will not be good that way.”
