We have covered indices of 200 biggest taxpayers out of 1000. These are large enterprises, which paid taxes and duties to the state budget with the total amount of AMD 290 million for the first semester 2016. In other words, these are Armenia’s mega companies. Companies holding the first 200 positions in the list paid AMD 261.3 billion to the state budget.
Armenia is Russia’s strategic partner in the Trans-Caucasus region, and we work consistently to develop our alliance in all, even the most sensitive areas, and on the international stage, in particular in the CIS region, where we work together in the CSTO and now in the Eurasian Union too.
During the meeting with RA president Serzh Sargsyan in Moscow RF president Vladimir Putin also reflected to seizure of the Police precinct by “Sasna Tsrer” group. In his words, hostage-taking, recorded in Armenia recently, is an unacceptable experience to solve political issues.
Armenia’s conspiratorial though, however, focused on the study of Erdogan’s mimics. As there was nothing else to focus on. As in Armenia they wouldn’t understand or didn’t learn that relations with friendly and hostile countries should be referred to not on the platform of national lamentation or delight, but on policy based on interests.
The President’s also instructed the Presidential Chief of Staff and the Secretary of the National Security Council until September 1 to present the Council’s Secretariat’s statute and structure for approval.
“Putin clarified Russia’s position in Baku. He stated that Russia would like that there were no winners or losers, but a mutually acceptable settlement was recorded. For the time being, I think there are no settlement plans, or, even if they are available, they won’t be discussed on account of moods in Armenia and Azerbaijan. Occurrences in Yerevan also complicate negotiations, as clear calls and claims were heard.”
“Armenia, as compared to Azerbaijan, is Russia’s strategic ally. On the one hand, trilateral cooperation may have a restricting influence towards Azerbaijan, and Azerbaijan may think over exertion of pressure towards these countries on the other. If an attempt is made to integrate Armenia in that transit network, then Azerbaijan will be obliged to change its policy,” Tarasov said.
“I think instigation is quite clear, as in the country throughout 25 years changes haven’t been recorded as a result of political discourse, I mean in political processes, political debates, and the authorities did their best to destroy any developing political organism. And naturally, when political organisms are destroyed, others come to substitute them, and when policy pursued through peaceful or conventional methodology fails, that sacred place doesn’t remain empty.”
Would seizure by “Sasna Tsrer” group be recorded if politics in Armenia wasn’t eliminated to a degree and in a way, that solution of the problems through a weapon wasn’t the only way of imposing changes in the country?
“After being unsanctioned, Iran is vitally interested to diversify its communications leading to north and west. Moreover, Tehran strives to develop those communications in all directions separately, to exclude the possibility of any political dependency. For that purpose Iran doesn’t say “no” to anyone, and takes all the cooperation directions, without conditioning one with the other, manifesting proper “strategic patience” and also balancing one with the other. Moreover, this approach is strictly exemplary for Armenia as well.”
