GEORGIA ADVOCATES ABOLISHMENT OF ROAD DUTY FOR ARMENIAN CARGO
TRANSPORTERS
YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 16. ARMINFO. Georgia advocates abolishment of the
road duty for Armenian cargo transporters, says deputy economic
development minister of Georgia Gena Muradyan.
The road duty is the key problem for cars crossing the
Armenian-Georgian border. Muradyan says that the Georgian Government
is liberalizing all the border crossing procedures. The road duty is
$240 for one 20-ton container. The chief of the automobile transport
administration of Georgia Alexander Chikvadze says that the Georgian
Government has drafted a new transport code envisaging lifting all
road duties for Armenia.
Manukyan says that in 1994 Armenia and Georgia agreed to mutually
abolish all road duties but point 4 was not clearly formulated and the
sides have to date been levying the duties from each other. The issue
of their abolishment was raised during Pres.Kocharyan's last year
visit to Georgia and was welcomed by the Georgian side.
