The new Tax Code will create cruel conditions for citizens and businesses in Armenia, economist Vardan Bostanjyan said on June 17. “I understand that the normalization of relations in the Tax Code pursues one goal: we need to concentrate our financial resources to perform state functions because the state funds are used in inefficient and undesirable ways. Concentration of financial resources is desirable for any country, but it should not become a lariat in the hands of society and economic activity, as is the case with the new Tax Code,” the economist said. Vardan Bostanjyan says the new document was drafted and imposed on us by international financial institutions. “Though they do not admit the fact but I have the impression that they want to empty our region, offering this Tax Code,” he said. In conclusion, Mr Bostanjyan said that many pro-government lawmakers are against the new code but have to vote for it because they represent the governing party.
