“How much can we save on armchairs and state cars?”
Today at the NA during the discussion of state budget 2016 the BHK lawmaker Tigran Urikhanyan addressed a question to Pavel Safaryan, First Deputy Minister of Finance, who was presenting the expenses and incomes of state and judicial authorities of the state, “I want to speak about the economical regime of this hungry and poor people, I don’t see any changes in this issue. I want to pose a rhetorical question, how much can we save on armchairs and state cars?” He also noted which services of our embassies and representations have been useful to our state that the expenses provided to them are being increased, “I give completely negative assessment to their work.” Pavel Safaryan noted that the expenses, of course, may be reduced, “Of course, they may be reduced, but certain reforms are necessary for it.”
