"The state budget of 2009 should be geographically transparent, it
means that the money disposed to every region and village should be
visible in it," said the Prime Minister of Armenia Tigran Sargsyan
in Government session. The Prime Minister has mentioned that the
geographical development has formed a part of President’s electoral
project.

Another point to be discussed during the Government session has been
a project to make changes in the law on TV/radio – according to the
current change special programs should be broadcast by Public TV and
Radio for the national minorities. Currently the law on TV/radio
says that programs for national minorities should be broadcast an
hour once a week by TV and an hour daily by radio. This limits the
right of national minorities to have access to information in their
native language.

Gegham Gharibjanyan, the Deputy Foreign Minister presented the
procedure for Armenians living abroad and foreign citizens having
certain categories to get entrance visa of Armenia from diplomatic
services and councils of Armenia abroad. The Deputy Foreign Minister
said that according to that procedure the process of getting entrance
visa becomes simplified.
