Chinese Ambassador, head of Anti-Corruption Committee of Armenia  discuss possibilities of deepening fight against corruption 

ArmInfo. Chairman of the Anti-Corruption Committee of the Republic of Armenia Sasun Khachatryan at a meeting with Ambassador of the People's Republic of  China to Armenia Fan Yong spoke about the functions and priorities of  the newly established anti-corruption body.

At the same time, he assured that the body is doing everything  possible to create zero tolerance for corruption in the country.

According to the press service of the Committee, Sasun Khachatryan  expressed confidence that the establishment of interaction with  Chinese partners and the exchange of experience will have a positive  impact on the work of law enforcement agencies of both countries,  considering that there is a specialized anti-corruption body in China  as well that carries out similar functions: National Control  Commission.

Referring to the Chinese leadership's tough and consistent fight  against corruption, Ambassador Fan Yong noted that it is the main  factor that contributed to the rapid development of the country and  the formation of people's trust in the government. According to the  ambassador, the country cannot develop if the necessary fight against  corruption is not carried out.

The Ambassador also stressed that an effective cooperation  environment has already been formed between Armenia and China, so it  would be great if the parties tried to strengthen cooperation in the  law enforcement field, especially since the governments of both  countries have the necessary will and determination to fight  corruption.

During the meeting, issues related to the need and importance of  introducing the latest information technologies in the fight against  corruption were also touched upon. Sasun Khachatryan, highlighting  the development of the capabilities of operational staff and the use  of the latest methods in anti-corruption measures among the  priorities of the body, expressed hope that the Chinese partners will  also be able to provide support in this matter.

At the end of the meeting, the parties agreed to deepen the newly  established ties and work effectively towards the exchange of  experience and the implementation of a number of other programs.
