A free trade agreement was not signed during a Premier-headed
Armenian delegation visit to Iran. The initiative belongs to the
Iranian side, and creating free trade zones is part of the Armenian
Government's strategy, RA Minister of Economy Nerses Yeritsyan stated
in Parliament. He explained that Iran has not yet resolved the legal
problems of setting zero customs duties for the transit of Armenian
goods.
The Minister hopes that a free trade agreement will be signed with
Iran next year. Yeritsyan said that the sides agreed on new approaches
and reach results under international conventions.
Minister Yeritsyan also reported that the sides also raised the issue
of an Armenia-Iran oil pipeline. The Armenian Government interested
in construction. "The Iranian side showed full understanding," the
Minister said.
The sides also discussed the issue of most favored nation basis between
the countries. The sides arranged about a visit of the chief of Iran's
Customs Service to Armenia to discus the issue.
