"It is not paid at all. First of all, of course, I draw attention immediately to the power block, law enforcement agencies. Today they are without funding of both salaries and, of course, other mandatory expenses, which are provided by our law," - radio "Sputnik Abkhazia" quotes his words.

Delba noted that if the consolidation of efforts to find funds for the purchase of electricity continues in the republic, then salaries will not be paid either.
