Sergey Kapinos: SME to promote Armenia's economic development in 2010

PanARMENIAN.Net - Armenia should intensively develop small and medium businesses, according to Sergey Kapinos, Head of OSCE Office in Yerevan.



"We have proposed the Armenian government to make SME development the mainstream of its economic policy," he told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter. "SME can promote the country's economic development in 2010 and the OSCE Office in Yerevan is willing to contribute to the process."
