One of the sad phenomena of our times is the fact that Armenian
"merchants" import Turkish goods to Armenia securing circulation
of more than 10s millions. One of the essential conditions is that
while buying any product of Turkish origin (sweets, chewing-gums,
washing powders, etc.) one cannot be sure it won't harm his/her health.
On the other hand: "After the examination of 103 samples of 45
Turkish products it was found out that they correspond to standards
of technical safety, that is to say they are not dangerous to human
life," announced the deputy of the head of Quality Inspectorate George
Gyozalyan. As a result of the examination it was found out that the
above mentioned standard is the only one that the examined goods
corresponded to. Chocolate bars "Safari", "Derby", "Nuss", chewing
gums "Golfresh" , "Pencil-Gum" and "Bubble Gum", biscuits "Twin",
"Look", "Gold", washing means "Bingo", "Tara" did not correspond to
the fixed standards.
As G. Gyozalyan assured the realization of the above mentioned goods
has been prohibited and the importing companies have been ordered to
take the goods back from the consumers.
To remind, "Defence of Consumers' Rights" Public Organization has
worked out a corresponding order and it is being discussed at the
moment.
To note, the fine has been fixed not for the importers but for the
sellers. As G. Gyozalyan stated this is not a raid against Turkish
goods, yet the greatest number of complaints refers Turkish products.
To note, this year the Government has let 80 million drams to put
goods under control.
