Today, in Minsk President Serzh Sargsyan participated in the works of
the Interstate Council of the Eurasian Economic Community (EvrAzEs).
In this organization Armenia has observer status. The session of the

conducted negotiations in a closed format and later were joined by
their delegations.
The agenda of the meeting comprised nearly two dozen issues, including
the implementation of the decisions adopted at the previous sessions
of the Council, creation of a common economic realm and customs union
on the territory of the EvrAzEs, as well as issues related to the
joint efforts to overcome the consequences of the global economic and
financial crisis.
At the session held on February 4, 2009, the Interstate Council
adopted two decisions: `On the establishment of the Anti-crisis Fund
of the EvrAzEs' and `On the establishment of the EvrAzEs Center of
High technologies'
Armenia is a co-founder of the Anti-crisis Fund and High-tech Center,
and the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia has already
ratified documents pertinent to these two decisions. Documents related
to the establishment of the Anti-crisis center are currently
undergoing the final stage of the process of internal verification and
at its conclusion the Center will start to function. After the meeting
in the extended format, the Heads of State signed documents related to
the adopted decisions, including those related to the creation of the
Customs Union of the Russian Federation, Belarus and Kazakhstan.
