Head of National Academy of Sciences of Armenia (NASA), Radik
Martirosyan, expressed his dissatisfaction about the annual speech
Armenia’s Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan delivered recently.
"The prime minister’s speech was a little stricter this year. He
was very much focused on merchandizing scientific achievements,"
said Martirosyan at a press conference today.
However, at the same time Martirosyan tried to justify the prime
minister saying: "What else could the prime minister say? He should
have put it that way given his position"
Earlier Armenia’s Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan had said in his
speech that it was high time for NASA not to raise but rather answer
to some current issues.
Asked whether he agreed with PM’s ideas about the NASA and whether he
was ready to find solutions to those problems with scanty financial
resources, Martirosyan said: "The prime minister did not clarify what
issues he meant."
"Of course, we are ready to resolve those issues, we have a Science
Development Concept," concluded Martirosyan.
