"The function of the President of the Republic of Armenia according to Article 123 of the RA Constitution.
1. The President of the Republic is the head of the state.
2. The President of the Republic follows the preservation of the Constitution.
3. The President of the Republic is impartial in exercising his powers and is guided exclusively by national and national interests.
4. The President of the Republic performs his functions through the powers defined by the Constitution. However, contrary to the legislation, the only function of RA President Vahagn Khachaturyan is meetings, awards and business trips. As part of these functions, on October 20, Khachaturyan participated in "Academic City of Armenia. at the two-day international forum of knowledge. During the conference, the President of RA also gave a speech, who spoke not from the forum, but from among the winners of the economics awards given by the Nobel Committee. First, the president gave an opening speech. "First of all, I welcome you to "Academic City, Armenia. to the participants of the International Knowledge Conference" event.
The title of the conference already suggests that the main goal of the planned discussions is to study the emerging global challenges and innovative developments in the fields of higher education and science, as well as to present the strategic vision of Armenia in the direction of promoting its role in the field of international education and research. My speech will be more of a short reference to the winners of the economics prizes awarded by the Nobel Committee this year. The reason is very simple. firstly, it was awarded to the most prominent scientists in the field of economics theory, the so-called "creative destruction" theorists, and, secondly, it has a direct connection with technological progress, knowledge education," said the president, and after that he did not speak a single line about the importance of the creation, implementation, and perspective of the Academic City.
After the speech of the President, journalists, including the correspondent of "Zhoghovurd" newspaper, tried to "extract" answers from the President regarding the situation in the country, saying that they wanted him to fulfill his constitutional duty. The president, however, noted that he did not come to the forum to talk, for example, about the arrest of reverends. The interesting thing is that he didn't even talk about the forum during the forum, let alone answer the journalists' questions. "Zhoghovurd" was informed that in 2024 According to the program of the President's office to ensure the implementation of the powers of the President of the Republic, the annual plan was approved: 1 billion 771 million drams, the specified plan was 1 billion 771 million drams, of which 1 billion 609 million 400 thousand drams were actually spent.
This is about 90.5 percent of the specified plan. About 162 million drams were saved. It turns out that the president may have missed several business trips. It is also possible that the saved numbers forced the president to brag to the villagers that we don't have money problems. The president is an economist, yes, he does not have a problem with money, but the country has become living in debt, where it is spent mercilessly, collected by terrorist methods and borrowing."
