ArmInfo. The Armenian economy loses about $ 40 million a day, and only 80 billion drams ($ 170 million) was poured into the country's economy. MP from the Prosperous Armenia Partry (PAP), economist Mikayel Melkumyan, stated this during briefings. The MP noted that it will be extremely difficult to restore this difference. Melkumyan did not explain, meanwhile, where did he get such an assessment.
<Difficulties are also associated with the lack of clear data on the number of new jobs, as well as in what part of the staff was removed from the shadows. However, the situation would not have been so depressing if foreign investments flowing into our country had not been reduced>, Melkumyan noted.
It should be noted that foreign direct investment in the Armenian economy has been declining for 5 consecutive years. According to foreign experts, despite the country's high potential, FDI inflows to GDP in 2019 were at 2%, which is the average for the last five years.
