YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 7, NOYAN TAPAN. According to first RA President Levon
Ter-Petrosian, there is no clan economy in Armenia, and not the clan,
but a robber chief system rules in the political sphere. He said at
the November 3 meeting with the youth of Armenian higher educational
institutions that clan economy, compared with robber chief economy,
is a more sound economy, as in any case, clans compete with one
another. And the robber chief system, pyramid-shaped centralized power,
according to L. Ter-Petrosian, does not permit any competition.

Touching upon the question of a young man, of how he imagines work
with the current National Assembly if he is elected a President, under
conditions of the Constitution considerably limiting the President’s
authorities, L. Ter-Petrosian said: "Today the most important
problem we are facing is the issue of division of power, creation of
counter-balances. However, we have the parliament we have, and the
new President should work with that parliament, as, in essence, there
is no mechanism of its dissolution." The new President, according to
him, should be able to contribute with his convictions, his speech,
his programs to that parliament’s not hampering adoption of laws
introduced by the executive power."
