Commenting on the revaluation of the Armenian dram at the Pastark
Club, Member of Parliament Vahram Baghdasaryan, Deputy Chair of the
Committee of Finance and Budget, asked to forget about revaluation of
the dram on June 30.

`Let us forget about the revaluation of the dram. Revaluation of the
dram and generally currency results from economic reforms or
significant economic growth in that country, which is felt by people
rather than seen on paper.I think you agree that we did not have
significant achievements,’ says Vahram Baghdasaryan.

It does not mean, however, that the instigator of the dram-dollar
operation is in Armenia. `There are, of course, negative phenomena, I
can speak about some of them, moreover, these are the political
intrigues, the games of the United States rather. To execute someone
who is earning billions. It is possible that they are earning a sum,
that there are negative phenomena. But there is a serous political
problem rather than a small country would be able to make such changes
with the dram or with the dollar,’ says Vahram Baghdasaryan.

According to him, if the dram is in harmony with the economy, it means
our economy is sustainable, whereas fluctuations show that there is a
problem. `We need not be concerned about the dollar. We need to find
the remedy in our economy, and become adjusted to outside games. We
should compare now the fluctuations of the dollar in another country,
such as France. If we have the same here, it means it is not our game,
if unusual things are happening, it means our economy is not
sustainable, or may be it is a matter of control,’ says the member of
parliament.
