Hovik Abrahamyan: national budget plunderers should be punished
Executive and legislative authorities should tackle the problems revealed by the control chamber, RA National Assembly speaker Hovik Abrahamyan said.

"Financial abuse in some sectors is systematic. It means that measures taken again violators are insufficient," he said, adding that the stolen funds should be returned and abusers punished.

He also instructed NA commissions to study the report submitted by the control chamber and suggest ways to resolve the existing problems.
