Cuts in governmental positions are planned in the state administration system, first deputy minister of finance Atom Janjughazyan said during parliamentary debates of the 2018 state budget draft.
In response to a question from opposition MP Edmon Marukyan, the deputy minister said: “Cuts of positions are planned for 2018 in the administration system. We are talking about cut of nearly 770 positions”, he said.
