As a result of the government’s anti-corruption measures from May 8 to July 20, nearly 29,200,000,000 drams (roughly 61,000,000 dollars) of crimes have been uncovered, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s assistant Aren Mkrtchyan said on Facebook.

He said that the crimes involved embezzlement, damages to the state, abuse of power and bribery.

“Work continues,” he said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
