Yerevan /Mediamax/. Armenian President Serzh Sarkisian stated at a meeting with Armenian entrepreneurs## in Yerevan today that “the state will always be on the side of business”.

Mediamax reports that the President assured the representatives of small and medium enterprises, as well as the starters that “the state will always be on their side”.

Serzh Sarkisian stated that today there is the problem of mutual trust between the state and entrepreneurs. “From now on, going to work, each employee of the tax and customs services should realize that he/she goes to provide services for business and no more than that. People, who are not comfortable with this approach, will be substituted by others”, the Armenian President stated.

According to him, “the atmosphere of mutual trust will not be a temporary phenomenon, but a permanent style of work”. Serzh Sarkisian stressed that each entrepreneur should see his partner in the face of a tax or customs employee.

“Of course, this will not happen tomorrow, hard work is needed, but I assure you that we will reach the set goal”, the President stated.

He urged the entrepreneurs to work within the framework of the legislation and not to try to conceal their incomes. Serzh Sarkisian noted that not a single business will manage to successfully exist, if the issues of social security, education and healthcare are not solved in the country.
