Today Government decided that cars transporting cargo more than 40 tons, must pay 10 000 AMD tax. Before the adoption, Prime Minister asked for what the tax is. The suggestion was made by Minister of Transport and Communications Arthur Arakelyan, who said that it won’t be an additional burden, it is the minimal tax in the region. “I don’t think that your opinion is so important”,- said Prime Minister and asked if the money would go into the state budget. “Why 10 000 AMD, set 20 000 AMD and more money will go to the state budget,”- joked Prime Minister. The decision was accepted, but Prime Minister noted that there must be discussion.
