RA NA Speaker Tigran Torosyan received the permanent representative
of the Currency International Fund to Armenia James Macque.
The two sides referred to the cooperation of the RA parliament and
CIF. Mr. Macque congratulated NA President on his new office and noted
that CIF-Parliament cooperation will henceforth enter a new stage. He
underlined the importance of the NA control function in all phases
of the Poverty combat military program as well as in all projects
implemented by joint efforts of CIF administration and Central Bank.
RA NA President Tigran Torosyan noted that the post Soviet
transformation is divided into two phases; the first phase focused on
economic issues whereas the second one – on democratic and political
issues.
Economic development has been more obvious in Armenia within the
recent 5 years than democratic processes; the establishment of
the civil society, the combat against corruption, polarization of
income. But only in case these two factors are combined full success
will be registered which will give Armenia an opportunity to have
its decent place in the international community. They also referred
to the rate of USD and other issues.
