Yerevan/Mediamax/. Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsian purchased “Artsakh HPP” OJSC shares at the sum of 5mln AMD.

Mediamax reports that the Prime Minister informed journalists on this during his visit to the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic (NKR) on April 9-11.

At that, Tigran Sargsian did not rule out that the share of his participation in “Artsakh HPP” Company shares may increase further on. “10% of annual income is a quite high index”, Armenian Prime Minister stated, assessing the dividends of the company.

Answering the question whether such an assessment contradicts his own statement that top officials should not deal with business, Tigran Sargsian stated: “We are for top officials not to deal with business but make investments into development of local economy”.

Armenian Prime Minister expressed hope that the successful example of “Artsakh HPP” will become contagious. As of today, the number of “Artsakh HPP” shareholders makes 1112 people.
