ArmInfo. Harsh statements made by new Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan about economic situation in the country are part of political show organized by ruling Republican Party of Armenia and President Serzh Sargsyan, Head of Heritage Faction Zaruhi Postanjyan told ArmInfo's correspondent.
Postanjyan stated that she does not believe in Karapetyan's reformist image and does not expect any serious changes from the new Prime Minister's work. "All these statements, instructions to revise tariffs is a political show to cheat the people", the MP noted. At the same time Postanjyan stated that Karapetyan cannot be free in rotten political and economic system. "He is Kremlin's envoy and this explains everything", the Head of the Faction stressed.
