ArmInfo. The future of Armenia, as a state, depends on the reforms that will be implemented in the country by the new government. This was declared on December 10 at a press conference by the President of the Scientific Society of Caucasus Studies, an expert of the Institute for World Economy and International Relations of the Russian Academy of Sciences named after. E.M. Primakov Alexander Krilov.
"If the situation in the country does not improve by spring, but rather deteriorates, we can expect new political upheavals. In addition, as we know, Armenia faces an important task, to prevent emigration. Certainly, this problem exists in a number of other countries - that the Baltic States and Bulgaria, but they do not have conflicts with other countries in the region. Therefore, the growth of emigration can lead to disastrous consequences, "the expert said. In this regard, said Krilov, it is necessary to carry out reforms that would improve the situation in the country. "To implement such a broad reform sector, cash injections are needed. The question is where to get them. The European Union is unlikely to allocate money for reforms, but even if it does, it is much less than is required. Russia is also unlikely to be able to finance reforms In Armenia, there are 2 reasons for this - firstly, because of the tense relations of Russia with the West, and secondly, we also have very limited opportunities. There is also China, but it's hard to say how much the interests of these two countries coincide. we see the only one The opportunity for Armenia is the dispossession of oligarchs, another question is how well this scenario can be implemented", the expert stressed.
