`We should start boycotting Turkish goods in the Armenian market. This
is, first of all, a problem of our national dignity, and then an
economic issue,' President of the Armenian Consumers Association Armen
Pogosyan has announced at a news conference on April 25.
However, according to him, surveys have shown that many Turkish goods
meet consumer standards and it is impossible to isolate fully the
Armenian market from Turkish goods. `Our citizens should understand
that they should not buy some products, despite it is cheap, as it
touches upon dignity of any Armenian, who remembers history of his
people,' Armen Pogosyan noted.
As a REGNUM correspondent reports, the association's president
reminded that when the French Senate recognized the Armenian Genocide
of 1915, `on that very day the Turkish Union for Consumer Rights
Protection announced boycott against French goods imported to the
country.' `We should undertake administrative measures too, without
violation of the law for consumer rights protection, ' concluded Armen
Pogosyan.
