Prime Minister of Armenia Karen Karapetyan believes that “the upcoming elections are a deterrent” to activation of economy.

“Being the most pragmatic sector of the society, business people want to see the results of the elections before taking any action,” Prime Minister stated in his exclusive interview for Mediamax.

“I already noted that I consider 2017 a year of diagnosis, inventory, “sanitizing” and increase of the governance system’s efficiency. Obviously, I don’t mean that the government doesn’t target economy growth. However, if we manage to “digitalize” our goals, get rid of excessive and inefficient structures, modernize the state decision-making system and make it more logical this year, then we will create a significant base for ensuring sustainable economic growth every year,” said the head of the government.
