If I were to say now that I am not a candidate for the Prime Minister and I am not running and will not be the Prime Minister, that would be an escape, it would be betraying the people halfway. I will be prime minister only if you decide. Nikol Pashinyan, acting Prime Minister of RA, leader of the “My Step” alliance, announced this in Tallinn, starting the “My Step” alliance campaign.


He mentioned that he became the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia because the people decided so.


“How long will I remain the Prime Minister of Armenia?” As long as you decide I should carry that status,” he said, adding that things have changed now.


“Before, the votes of RA citizens were stolen, the votes of citizens were manipulated. Let’s record the biggest result of the revolution: we eliminated the need for revolutions from Armenia, because in all cases when you decide to make a revolution, you can make your revolution through your one ballot. The revolution took place because the people were deprived of the opportunity to form a government through elections, because you voted for one, another was elected,” he emphasized.


Nikol Pashinyan announced that he expects a vote of confidence from the people.


The time has come to implement an economic revolution in Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, Acting Prime Minister of Armenia, leader of the “My Step” alliance, announced in Tallinn.


“We should raise Armenia to a completely new political and economic level in the coming period,” he said.


Nikol Pashinyan said that there will be several changes in 2019.


Moving on to the pre-election promises, Pashinyan announced that his government will completely exempt micro-business from taxes and, for example, all establishments working in Tallinn, including trade stands, whose annual turnover will not exceed 24 million drams, will be exempt from taxes. According to him, this is the result of their policy of encouraging work. In addition to this, continued the Acting Prime Minister who came to Tal following the citizens’ vote, individual taxi drivers will be exempted from all kinds of taxes. Also, the maximum amount of the fine will be changed, the maximum amount of the fine for violating the traffic rules will be limited to 29 thousand drams.


“In the past, the policy was carried out in RA that the citizen should be as poor as possible, always standing with his neck bowed in front of officials, regional governors, and deputies. We say no to that policy, we must create an opportunity for our citizens to work and support their families with their sweat. The neck of an RA citizen should not be crooked,” added Nikol Pashinyan.
