Nikol Pashinyan answered the MP’s question, noting that the illegal turnover of drugs increases.
“The illegal drug turnover and the number of the users increased so much that we discussed even that issue in the Security Council and gave assignments. The hard thing is that they sell drugs already by telegram channels. If we know the situation correctly, then in the near future we’ll apply more effective tools on fighting against them,” the Prime Minister of the country said.
Touching upon the consideration of the opposition MP on thousands of families not having parties, the Prime Minister said: “You are cut off from the Republic of Armenia, if you think that they do not have parties. You do have parties, your faction does and everybody does. We don’t deny anything.”
