“When the economic growth is evident the national currency is appreciated. The point is that there shouldn’t be any shakes so that businessmen can direct their resources in the right direction,” said Vahram Nersisyants, the President’s councillor on the economic issues during his meeting with journalists today.

Mr. Nersisyants has recently returned from Singapur, where he participated in the annual summit of World Bank and International Monetary Fund. The councillors of 192 presidents gathered in the summit to discuss corruption, to reveal its essence, to find its appropriate definition and ways of its combat. “During the debate we faced a serious problem – which are the criteria of corruption as corruption has different outcome in different countries. Our second task referred to the methodology how to measure corruption. Unless we find the solutions to these problems corruption combat won’t have distinct bases, ” says Vahram Nersisyants.

The Trustee’s Council was assigned to work out a model regulating corruption combat in spring. A few bills were discussed during the autumn meeting but the model was not finally affirmed.

Asked whether he approves of the Dashnaktsutyun’s suggestion to form a corruption combating committee Mr. Nersisyants answered, “The point is that any establishment combating against corruption may become a hearth of corruption. I claim that the roots of corruption must be eradicated at first,” offered Vahram Nersisyants.
