"There are certain positive developments in the negotiations over
gas price. We expressed stormy protests," announced NA vice Speaker
Vahan Hovhannisyan at the press conference today who has taken part
in the 10th session of Armenian-Russian inter-parliamentary committee.
The NA vice Speaker informed about what had been discussed at the
session. One of the questions discussed was the question concerning
Education and Science about the fact that the 50 free places for
Armenian students in Russia are not filled up. "It is the problem of
Ministry of Education and Science," the vice Speaker mentioned.
Another question discussed at the 10th session of Inter-Parliamentary
Committee referred to the means of connection between the two
countries. The question of ferry-boat was discussed, the fact that
it doesn't transfer goods. "Aren't there any goods," they asked.
And the Armenian side noticed that the taxes fixed by Russian side
for transfer of goods are too high.
Among the questions examined at the session was the question of dual
citizenship as according to V. Hovhannisyan's formulation: "Russia
is a problematic country from the point of view of dual citizenship."
As he says dual citizenship is banned by Russian laws, yet their
Constitution there is no such ban. "Our colleagues promised
us to review and correct those legislative contradictions" he
added.
