ArmInfo. After the revolution, there are no Armenians of the Diaspora and the RA, there are just Armenians. This was announced by the acting Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan at the meeting with the participants of the NerUzh program in Dilijan.
According to him, equal conditions are created in Armenia for all Armenians so that they work and open their own business in their homeland. "I want the economic revolution to be accomplished not by the government, but by the people. We are doing everything possible to do this, creating all conditions, and not at a declarative level, but at a practical level, "said Pashinyan, adding that the possibility of creating venture capital and the programs that emanate from it is being considered. startups.At the same time, he spoke against granting the Diaspora Armenians the right to vote during elections in Armenia. "This is not expedient from both political and technical points of view.
For example, if we take Russia, if Armenians of Russia get the right to vote in elections in Armenia, then more polling stations should be opened there than in the RA itself, as far as politically expedient of view, and technically it will be very difficult to control the whole process, "Pashinyan explained.He also declared a high possibility of abolishing Mindiaspora. "There is such a probability, but this does not mean that other departments will not deal with these issues. Almost all ministries of Armenia have the functions of working with the Diaspora," Pashinyan said. The acting prime minister also stressed the importance of implementing high technologies, especially in the defense sphere of the republic, which will allow it to more effectively counter emerging threats.
