Armenian President Robert Kocharyan criticized the work of the
Armenian Customs Committee during today's working meeting with the
leadership of the committee.
The president noted that the primary task for the current year was to
improve customs and tax administration, the presidential press service
told Arminfo news agency.
At the same time, the president said that the presidential supervisory
service worked jointly with the Customs Committee and revealed a
number of negative phenomena. "Our research showed that a great amount
of smuggled goods is still on the market. You must explain me how do
these goods come to the country," Kocharyan said.
He noted that a lack of organization, in particular, at the Megri
customs checkpoint created favourable conditions for bribery. The
president instructed to send a working group to the checkpoint for
bringing things back to normal.
