VIDEO: Pay the fine—violate the rules, violate the rules—pay the fine, we came, we said it can't be like this, dear people

Yes, the citizen is not the material for fines, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated during the Q&A session of the National Assembly–Government.

“In the past, we said that you can violate traffic rules, pay the money, and keep driving; violate again, pay again, and continue to drive. We came and said that it can't be like this, people, there is a points system, you have a certain quota for violations, if you exceed that, you will lose your driver's license,” he declared.

Speaking about declaring taxpayers as 'heroes,' Pashinyan noted: “It's not the taxpayer who is a hero, but the person who works, creates results, and pays taxes as per the law. Because a person may have a 1000 dram tax obligation, pay 100 drams, while hiding 900 drams and looking for loopholes. I have never said that this person is the number one hero. I have said that the number one hero is the one who generates 1000 drams and pays the full amount. Yes, I have said that poverty exists in people’s minds and I continue to insist on that.”
