ArmInfo. Armenian trucks are denied the entry to neighboring Iran
and Turkey due to the EURO III and IV standards accepted in these
countries, Armenian Transport and Communication Minister Gourgen
Sargsyan said at parliamentary hearings on the draft budget 2010,
Friday.
He said only three or four Armenian many-tonnage cars meet these
standards, and the whole remaining car fleet needs to be upgraded. The
minister pointed out that the non-compliance with these stands
practically hinders transportation of Armenian cargoes to these
countries while Iranian, Turkish and Georgian trucks enter Armenia
without any obstacles. G.Sargsyan added that these cars belong to
the private sector, and their replacement is connected with financial
difficulties. The parliamentarian offered the government to decrease
or cancel the customs duties for import of trucks to Armenia, this
will decrease their value and contribute to upgrading of the car fleet.
