December 06,2016 14:01

“I am encouraged what Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan has said so far about the priority he wants to put on finding corruption”,- in interview with journalists said US ambassador to Armenia Richard Mills.

He added: “I think he is responding to what he’s hearing from the Armenian people, from voices in Armenian journalism that the corruption needs to be addressed. Corruption also needs to be addressed because it can prevent business investment, business growth in Armenia. Corruption also can affect national security, because you can give corrupt business people, corrupt officials outside of a country, outside of Armenia the ability to influence events inside Armenia. I think the prime minister knows all this and he is concerned about it. I have told him that US embassy, US government stand ready to work with him in any way that we can help”.
