SERZH SARGSYAN ASKED TO TURN OFF CAMERAS
Today President Sargsyan conducted the meeting of government during
which the new members of government were affirmed.
At the beginning of the meeting Serzh Sargsyan noted that in the
past year our country held three big elections. According to him,
a parliament was elected which includes the entire palette of the
political field. In the result of the presidential election we have
a new political culture, he said. And the mayoral election showed
that the citizens are ready to support the officials who work day
and night and change something every day, he said.
President Sargsyan says every election is a trial for our country
and young democracy. "We went through the election confidently
and came out of it as a stronger state and society. Now, in this
most favorable period since 2008, we will commit ourselves to work,
entirely and consistently, to resolve the people's problems and to
build a more secure Armenia," Serzh Sargsyan said.
He said there are great expectations from this government and no
obstacles to their efficiency. He noted that this government will be
assessed only by its outputs, very specific outputs.
"Last year the government was tasked to ensure at least 7% growth. The
task was fulfilled. This year the task is the same but we will
expect qualitative indicators from the government. We expect specific
indicators of solution of social issues. We will not be asking what
has been done but what results it has produced. The results must be
measurable and visible," he noted.
According to Serzh Sargsyan, raising pensions and salaries is
measurable, optimization of the exaggerated public administration
system is measurable, solution of social issues of people is
measurable.
"We have very many issues and in the visible future we will have an
opportunity to speak about these issues and their solutions in a more
inclusive setting. I wish you all success and a clear understanding
that a lot depends on your success. It may be invisible at first
sight but a lot depends indeed," he said.
For his part, Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan noted that the government
will do everything it can to achieve its goals at best. Then the
government continued the meeting behind closed doors. "We could turn
off the cameras, couldn't we?" Serzh Sargsyan said.
