YEREVAN, APRIL 27, ARMENPRESS. The Bright Armenia (LHK) opposition party is recommending the government to provide more coronavirus relief to citizens.

“The international community, different leading countries have taken this path. We are suggesting to set aside 100 billion drams for May and provide 100,000-dram in assistance to 500,000 families from this sum, as well as pay additional pensions to 470,000 pensioners,” LHK party leader Edmon Marukyan said in a statement on social media.

Marukyan said this assistance should not be provided to public sector or public service employees.

So far, the government has already initiated 14 different relief packages.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
