"Armenia’s national debt is accurately managed controlled up to
acceptable limits," RA Minister of Finance Tigran Davtyan stated.

National debt law enables to augment the debt up to 60% of GDP, however
there is a limit of 50% and once reaching it, certain restrictions
are applied. Particularly budget deficit should not exceed 3% of
GDP. Davtyan considers there are no grounds for concern as Armenia’s
national debt has not reached this limit. "The microeconomic stability
in Armenia is maintained. We have a clear program of debt servicing
till 2025, which we stick to," Davtyan concluded.
