We know from exposed cases that corruption exists in various circles of state bodies – PM

YEREVAN, FEBRUARY 9, ARMENPRESS. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan said it’s no secret that there are manifestations of corruption in various circles of state bodies in Armenia. “There’s corruption in various circles, we know this from the revelations that we've made in various circles, not from anywhere else. We’ve exposed [notorious] corruption cases in the recent period, in the Food Inspection Agency, in the Customs Service, in one of the administrative districts of the Yerevan City Hall, in the government and elsewhere,” Pashinyan said at the Cabinet meeting.

He emphasized that the objective of the government is to prevent corruption, and not for corruption to continue taking place and then expose it. “That’s why the Corruption Prevention Commission was created in Armenia,” he added.
