  Armenia needs to change its economic policyDecember 22, 2009 - 19:45 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - If the economic policy of Armenia is implemented in the same way anymore, we would become a tenth-rate country, Larisa Alaverdyan , secretary of the Heritage parliamentary group told a press conference in Yerevan. According to her, the political forces do not make any changes in economic policy. "Our budget does not provide housing for 10,000 people who have no shelter," she said, adding that the majority of people deprived of apartments during the Spitak earthquake have not been provided with flats so far. The economic policy of authorities leads to increased impoverishment and the number of poor.
