Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan participated in the `20 years of
independent economy of the Republic of Armenia’ conference in
Tsakhkadzor organized by the Student Council of the Economic
University of Armenia and the Youth Foundation.

The Prime Minister delivered a lecture on `Challenges and
opportunities of post-crisis economic policy.’ He noted that one of
the primary objectives is the creation of the atmosphere promoting the
accumulation of savings.

`These savings must be directed towards the development of economy.
This is the objective our pension reforms pursue. We’ll form
accumulated pension funds, where citizens will cumulate their savings
for the future,’ Tigran Sargsyan said.

`Today the world economy stands out for interdependency. The tax
restrictions must be eliminated stage by stage, the trade should be
liberalized and common markets must be formed,’ PM Tigran Sargsyan
said.

The conference brought together more than 100 students and lecturers.
