ArmInfo.A referendum on amendments to the Constitution will have a positive impact on the economic situation in Armenia. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated this on February 12 from the rostrum of the parliament.
Pashinyan said that the campaign before the referendum will activate the country's economy. "The main factor that has an impact on the economy is the confidence of the citizens of Armenia in their future. I am more than convinced that the campaign will in no way affect the economy in a negative sense. On the contrary, the referendum will strengthen the faith of citizens in the future, therefore, the economic situation will improve ", assured the prime minister.
The Prime Minister also noted that this campaign also activates tourism in Armenia. "Many of our compatriots will come to Armenia to vote in a referendum. We are creating a new type of tourism, election tourism. I think that our compatriots who are citizens of Armenia, realizing the importance of these reforms, will definitely come, especially considering the fact that now you can buy air tickets at very affordable prices. Those Armenians who are not citizens of Armenia can also take part in this process. I think they will be interested to see how democracy is strengthening in Armenia, "Pashinyan concluded.
It should be noted that on February 6, the parliament adopted a referendum decision at which Armenian citizens will decide whether they agree to amend the Constitution of the country. On April 5, a constitutional referendum will be held in Armenia, at which the issue of judges of the Constitutional Court will be decided. Many MPs and human rights activists said that this decision is unconstitutional, since initially the lawmakers had to forward their proposals to the Constitutional Court. According to the decision adopted on February 11 at the CEC meeting, the campaign will be held from February 17 to April 3.
