Hrant Bagratian demands government resignation

The 2014 draft state budget submitted to the parliament for discussion is mere verbiage, the Armenian parliamentary deputy Hrant Bagratian said.

During the discussions today he called upon other deputies to vote against the draft budget and demand the government’s resignation.

Speaking about the connection between next year’s state budget and Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union, Hrant Bagratian said the Armenian government should discuss all the customs changes to occur as a result of Armenia’s joining the Customs Union. “There will be major changes in the budget following the country’s entry into the Customs Union,” he noted.
