Yerevan /Mediamax/. "Both the political and the economic authority in
Armenia today are in the hands of one and the same people", candidate
for the position of the President, Leader of "National Consent"
Aram Harutiunian stated at a news conference in Yerevan today.
Mediamax reports that, according to him, to solve the given problem,
it is necessary to establish an "economic parliament, which will
include the largest tax-payers of the country".
"This will help to separate the political activity from the economic
one, and further on it will not be profitable for large business to
conceal the sum of the paid taxes", Aram Harutiunian stated.
Leader of "National Consent" noted that reduction of the number of
taxes and limitation of the direct contact of the tax-payers with
the representatives of tax bodies is also included in his program.
"Bureaucratic apparatus should not hinder free economy", Aram
Harutiunian stated.
