"The members of "Our Home – Armenia" party are ready to extirpate the
bribery in the Republic within a month. It will be just enough to shoot
3-4 people and the problem of corruption will be resolved", the leader
of "OHA", Vachagan Chibukhchyan, said at the party’s special session.

He noted he intends to raise the issue of exemption of the Armenia’s
boundary village dwellers from the payment of communal services. "We
have oligarchs who had robbed our people for many years. Let them
share these 50 villages between them and pay money to the state
treasury instead of the countrymen", Chibukhchyan said. In case
if they refuse, we "shall make them answer", he said. The idea to
attract the Armenian Diaspora to such "charity", as to Chibukhchyan,
is not serious, as in this case "the money will not reach those in
need and will be "eaten" by officials".
