VIDEO: "I'll Start Closing Roads Again Before My Eyes" - Nikol Pashinyan

During a conference held in Aragatsotn, a businessman complained to the Prime Minister that grape growers were blocking roads and forcing entrepreneurs to sell grapes at their desired prices. "I'll start closing roads again before my eyes," joked Nikol Pashinyan in response.

* In the past, there has been a process of demonization against entrepreneurs, which had some objective reasons— for example, entrepreneurs kept close-shaved heads. However, now a new layer of entrepreneurs is forming. This was announced today by the Prime Minister during the conference in Aragatsotn.

Nikol Pashinyan explained that there needs to be a perception among the public that entrepreneurs are the most important active participants.

* During the conference held in Aragatsotn, one businessman spoke about the need to renovate the road leading to his factory, to which Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan responded. He said that if an investor makes an investment of 5, 10, or 15 million dollars, then, under certain conditions, the state must also be obliged to renovate the road leading to that investment in order to value that investment.

* There are many investment projects that have been delayed due to issues related to changes in land designations. This was announced today by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan. According to him, governors often state that they are being asked for investment projects, but this land issue hinders them.
