Former Armenian Prime Minister and current Armenian National Congress MP Hrant Bagratyan lambasted the government of ex-Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan for failing to achieve its stated goals, particularly in the economic sector.

Bagratyan focused on the projected 6.2% economic growth envisaged by Sargsyan, stating that only 3.2% had been realized.

Bagratyan addressed his critique at Deputy Economics Minister Atom Janjoughazyan during a debate today in the National Parliament on the past performance of the government under Sargsyan’s tenure as prime minister.

Referring to the implementation of Armenia’s national budget, Bagratyan said that it has always been based on interpretations rather than cold hard evidence.
