ArmInfo. "The Armenian-Ukrainian relations could developed much better
but for the financial crisis, due to which the parties have lost
about 30-40% of the commodity turnover",- said Ukrainian Ambassador
to Armenia Alexander Bozhko, who is completing his diplomatic mission
in the republic.
He pointed out that when he took office in Armenia in 2005, the
commodity turnover between the two countries was 118 mln USD, and
three years later it amounted to 310 mln USD.
"This proved that our relations were developing quite dynamically, and
we could have good prospects but for the global financial crisis",-
he said. At the same time, he stressed that the Ukrainian embassy in
Armenia was actively working at reduction of the negative effect of
the crisis on the bilateral relations and worked out a social program,
which envisaged not only neutralization of possible threats, but also
ensuring of worthy future in the economic sphere.
As regards the inter-regional cooperation between Armenia and Ukraine,
Bozhko said that in autumn 2009 a delegation headed by the Governor
of Kharkov region of Ukraine visited Armenia and discussed possible
cooperation in the given field with the country's authorities. In
addition, he stressed that cooperation in agriculture has already
been launched and is being promoted.
