Open Discussion: How to Put an End to the Armenian Oligarchy

12:50, July 3, 2012

I want to open a discussion about what it will take to get rid of the oligarchic system that has long taken control of Armenia.

For years I have heard nothing but complaints about the various clan leaders who enjoy immunity from prosecution and use their power positions in government to essentially do whatever they want, like terrorizing Armenian citizens and even having them killed as in the case of Tigran Avetyan. There is a video of Ruben Hayrapetyan on YouTube boasting about how he's harassed and "punished" people, even some at gunpoint, so that he gets his way. But not all peer powerheads are so brazen as to admit committing such acts.
