It should also be recalled that the topic of gambling is not only concerned with local parliamentarians. At the opening of the Yerevan-Tel Aviv flight, the president of the local airline stated that, in addition to the transport connection between the two countries, this was also caused by the frequency of arrivals of Israeli residents, who are striving not only to visit the country’s cultural sights, but also to get into gambling establishments. Today in Armenia, according to official data, there are about ten gambling clubs and one hundred salons that make a significant financial contribution to the national budget.

According to an official statement from the press service of the organization, an illegal gambling establishment operated in rented premises in the administrative building of the “Yerevan Watch Factory”.
