During today’s sitting of the Government, Minister of Economy Nerses
Yeritsyan came forth with a proposal to reconsider the expenses instead
of reducing the budget. Heads of agencies have five days to reconsider
their expenditures.
Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan underlined that It is necessary to shift
to a saving regime, reveal the internal resources and save the state
means, spending them in accordance with revenues.
`The GDP indices we had in January have abruptly worsened. It means we
have to be ready for the worst scenario. There is too much uncertainty
today. No one can say how the events will develop,’ the Prime minister
noted.
