Eduard Abramyan: Armenia’s military-industrial complex is in poor state


Armenia’s military-industrial complex is in a rather poor state, says <b>Eduard Abramyan</b>, leader of the Neo-Conservative Movement.

“The development of this sphere may seriously contribute to Armenia’s economic growth preventing brain drains from the country,” he told a news conference in Yerevan.

At that, he noted that there are a great number of relevant specialists in Armenia who are either unemployed or offer their innovative projects to foreign organizations at very low costs.

“By promoting the development of the sphere, we will also resolve the armament problem of Armenian army,” he said, stressing the importance of the state’s involvement in the process.
