Turkey might carry out dumping policy and seek to gain monopoly in
Armenian market in case of Armenia-Turkey border opening, Chairman
of NA Standing Committee on Fiscal, Budgetary and Economic Affairs
Gagik Minasyan stated at Nov. 10 press conference.
According to him, Armenia will be forced to adopt an economic policy
that deprives the neighbors of such pretensions. "These actions
can affect Armenia's economy dramatically, but luckily international
organizations enable taking the necessary steps towards the neighbor,"
Minasyan outlined.
According to him, research of the Turkish market shows it might have
demand in Armenian electricity, cement and agricultural commodities.
"Turks' statements that they need nothing from Armenia are
policy-induced and have economic basis," Minasyan noted adding that
Turkey will not make such statements once political issues are settled.
In case of border opening Armenia will have an opportunity to
diversify export and import, "Presently, Georgia charges Armenia
for cargo traffic as much as it will cost from New York to Poti,
and with border opening the situation will change in terms of import
and export volumes increase," Minasyan said.
