Russia did not reject the idea to include Armenia in a single customs
union. A single customs code has been functioning in the territory of
Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan since June 1, 2010 based on agreement
signed in 2007. Works on creation of single customs zone are underway.
Vice-President of trade-industrial chamber of Russia Georgiy
Petrov spared no efforts to praise the newly created union at the
Russian-Armenian business forum held in Yerevan. Despite Armenia
received no direct invitation to join the union, Petrov implied
Armenia's joining the union will be advantageous for the country.
"Customs union with single customs tariffs and single customs code
is not directed against anyone. This customs code is more liberal
than the previous one functioning in Russia," he added.
