ArmInfo. Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan stated the necessity of
a hard fight against corruption.
In his Oct 2 speech in parliament, the president stressed that the
custom to needle one's way by dexterity should be eradicated in the
country. He noted that the officials "with sticky fingers" will be
dismissed. "An official's seat should be held by a man whose work
meets national interests", Sargsyan stressed and added that the notion
"telephone justice" should be liquidated in the society. Justice
should be based on the letter of the law, he said.
Persons' right to property and legal relations should be protected by
the independent court of independent Armenia, he stressed. As regards
the fight against corruption, Sargsyan pointed out that it will be
even harder.
According to him, each display of corruption will be criminalized. "The
culture of non-admission of corruption should be formed in the
society. The level of detectability and punishment of corrupted
officials will grow.
There are already premises for it today. However, I must note once
again that this fight can succeed only due to joint actions of the
state and the society", he said.
