We will introduce a new tax system. before its launch, we will restore the tax regime in effect until January 1, 2025.
We will eliminate sales tax and VAT, introducing a simple 5% tax instead.
We will eliminate the unfair approach of equal taxation. little income will be taxed less, more income – more.
Citizens will be able to buy business shares, the stock market will be accessible to everyone.
We will invest digital dram, ensuring transparency and control of state finances.

We will encourage the teacher’s professional development. no teacher who does not pass the voluntary certification will lose his job.
Quality, continuous training and re-specialization programs will be introduced for doctors working in state health institutions.
A new salary system for medical workers and educators will be introduced. place of work (especially in marzes), riskiness, workload, etc. will be taken into account.
Medical workers and teachers will no longer be involved in administrative work. the doctor should treat, the teacher should teach.
