    That is positive that at least they make some protests against the corruption.
    But the situation is not better at all neither in Georgia or Armenia.It was just few months ago that the Gerogian Primse Minister died in his flat from ''mysterious reasons.Who can forget that the Mafia which controls the state and the politicians entered in the PARLIAMENT and murdered eight politicians and
    Prime Minister Vazgen Sarkisian , because he was opposed to the corruption and their interests .Is anyone even punished or does anyone know what was that assasination about , or are there even LAWS in Armenia?
    I honestly don't see a reason to discuss about Genocides and Turkeys when the 50% of the income of the country is eaten by the politicans of ALL political parties and they build Vila's on the top of mountains while the people have struggling to survive.
