The government has decided to significantly toughen its fight against endemic corruption in Armenia and is ready to work together with major opposition groups in that effort, Prime Minister Tigran Sarkisian said on Thursday.
"The existing situation in Armenia — in the area of corruption in particular — does not satisfy us," Sarkisian told a weekly session of his cabinet. "The president of the republic is demanding resolute actions, including the use of surgical methods, so that we can effect changes that are tangible and visible."
"In order to achieve success in this area, I think we should substantially step up cooperation with civil society … I think it would also be right to invite opposition parties to cooperate with us and become involved in this work," he said.
