January 22, 2011 | 00:04
Majority of buses of the companies operating weekly passenger and
cargo transportations to Turkey and from Turkey to Armenia will not
leave Yerevan tomorrow. Yerevan-Istanbul tours are canceled due to
increase in customs costs for cargo transported from Turkey to
Armenia, representatives of transportation companies told NEWS.am.
In one of the companies we were told that the January 22 bus will not
leave for Turkey, as only several businessmen expressed willingness to
leave for the country. However, if necessary they will organize a trip
to Turkey by a bus of another company. `Businessmen are expecting
final decision of customs service. However, if you really need going
to Turkey we can arrange it although we do not advise if going for
commercial purposes,' the company representative said.
As NEWS.am reported earlier, cargo transportation costs from Turkey to
Armenia have twice increased since January 16. It is conditioned
solely by requirements imposed by the customs authorities of Armenia.
