    Yerevan, 26 June: Overcoming corruption and shadow economy in Armenia
    presumes also overcoming a psychological barrier, Armenian Prime
    Minister Serzh Sargsyan thinks. He presented to Armenian MPs today
    the government's programme for the next five years.

    Sargsyan said that avoiding to pay taxes and bribing will be
    approached as a dishonourable occurrence condemned by society. "There
    must not be all forgiving approaches within us, and we should begin
    from ourselves. We should not take into account family or friendly
    ties, we should not think co-partisans the people who avoid paying
    taxes. We must understand that this is the most serious illness for
    the government," Sargsyan stressed.

    He added that the government will demand from law enforcement agencies
    to activate the fight against corruption and make revealing of crime
    worthy of being voiced. In this connection, the activities of the
    Prosecutor's Office, the Police, and tax and customs bodies should
    become more transparent, Sargsyan said.
