The Government of Armenia has worked out an action plan on Armenia's
accession to the Customs Union, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan
said in Yerevan, Wednesday.
To recall, on November 6 Tigran Sargsyan and Viktor Khristenko,
Chairman of the Eurasian Economic Commission Board, signed a memorandum
on promotion of cooperation between the Eurasian Economic Commission
and Armenia.
According to Tigran Sargsyan, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan
has applied to the presidents of the three member states of the
Customs Union (Russia, Kazakhstan, Belarus) to respond to the action
plan Armenia has started to perform. The Premier stressed that the
Government of Armenia would unify its laws within the frames of the
Customs Union and this will considerably facilitate the activities
of Armenia's economic entities within the Customs Union and will
contribute to free transit of cargoes. Viktor Khristenko, in turn,
assured that there are no customs duties or fees on the border with
the Customs Union member states.
To note, the memorandum aims to promote and intensify the cooperation
between the Eurasian Economic Commission and Armenia.
To recall, the Presidents of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia adopted
a decision to sign the specified memorandum at the meeting of the
Supreme Eurasian Economic Council in Minsk on 24 October.
