    ANDRANIK MARGARIAN: AT ANY MOMENT WE CAN CONFRONT ANY INFRINGEMENT AGAINST OUR STATE

    Nov 01 2006

    YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 1, NOYAN TAPAN. Discussions of the 2007 draft state
    budget started in the Standing Committees of the RA National Assembly
    on November 1. This is the 7th annual state budget that the government
    headed by the Prime Minister Andranik Matgarian has submitted to the
    parliament for discussion.

    According to A. Margarian, the 2007 draft state budget is a logical
    continuation of the policy adopted in accordance with the action
    plan that the government approved after the 2003 parliamentary
    elections. The Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper has been a guideline
    for the government. The prime minister said that the draft submitted
    is again a socially oriented one. A growth in expenditures is envisaged
    in the following spheres: social security, health, science, education,
    as well as defence and national security. In the words of A. Margarian,
    although the increase in financing of Armenia's defence sector is not
    sufficient compared with Azerbaijan, "given the fighting efficiency
    and organizational level in our defence system, we should not be
    afraid of this difference between the allocations." "At any moment
    we can confront any infringement against our state," A. Margarian
    assured. According to him, the government envisaged much higher rates
    fot the 2007 state budget's revenue part compared with 2006, which
    "will certainly be difficult but not impossible to implement". Like
    in recent years, in 2007 too, the government intends to ensure the
    execution of the budget's revenue part thanks to the fight against
    corruption and shadow economy and the improvement of tax and customs
    administration without raising taxes.
