Nikol Pashinyan focused on the price of bananas during today's session of Armenia's parliament.
The opposition MP said that while the yellow fruit costs 500 or 600 drams per kilo, at a stretch 700 drams, throughout Europe, in Armenia a kilo goes for more than 700.
Pashinyan wagged his finger at Mihran Poghosyan, who heads the country's Compulsory Enforcement Service, for controlling the banana market with the backing of Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan.
"And against this backdrop, the man is a patriot. Do you believe it? He takes new employees to the Genocide Memorial and has them take an oath swearing 'In the name of the homeland…' If you're a patriot let the people live in Armenia. Let them run their businesses. If you're such a patriot don't do things that force people to leave," Pashinyan declared at the parliament session.
