/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Enhanced food security is in the focus of the
Armenian authorities, said Gagik Minasyan, chairman of the RA NA
Standing Committee on Financial, Credit and Budgetary Affairs.
"The authorities will pay a particular attention to the preservation
and renovation of food reserves, special attention will be paid to
promoting the local agriculture. Along with the economic growth
appropriate mechanisms to stimulate local production need to be
developed," he told a news conference in Yerevan on Tuesday.
Mr. Minasyan reminded, that the state subsidizes agriculture (30 000
drams / per 1 hectare of land).
He also informed that regional security problems were discussed at
the 34th session of the Economic, Commercial, Technological and
Environmental Affairs Committee of the Parliamentary Assembly of
Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) in Chisinau on March 17. "The
meeting specified the definition of the poverty limits, which in
Armenia exceeded 3 per cent, and this is a new challenge for the
Armenian government," he said.
On 25 June 1992, the Heads of State and Government of eleven countries
signed in Istanbul the Summit Declaration and the Bosporus Statement
giving birth to the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC). It came into
existence as a model of multilateral political and economic initiative
aimed at fostering interaction and harmony among the Member States,
as well as to ensure peace, stability and prosperity encouraging
friendly and good-neighborly relations in the Black Sea region. The
BSEC Headquarters - the Permanent International Secretariat of the
Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC PERMIS) -
was established in March 1994 in Istanbul. With the entry into force
of its Charter on 1 May 1999, BSEC acquired international legal
identity and was transformed into a full-fledged regional economic
organization: Organization of the Black Sea Economic Cooperation. With
the accession of Serbia (then Serbia and Montenegro) in April 2004,
the Organization's Member States increased to twelve.
