SS: In another blow to russian global influence it appears that despite recent threats from Moscow, Armenia appears set to continue its westwards shift. This follows a general sense of frustration in Russia's refusal to support its CSTO partner nation when it came to blows with neighbouring Azerbaijian. The latest survey ahead of Armenia’s decisive elections on 7 June has projected that Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s Civil Contract party could win nearly 65% of decided voters. submitted by /u/

Growth is not a synonym for population increase.

I see a lot of people in other posts, recently and over the years, asking how anyone can expect growth to happen with a shrinking population. Investment growth is not population growth.
