    PUTIN-SARGSYAN MEETING TO GIVE NEW IMPETUS TO ARMENIA'S INTEGRATION INTO CUSTOMS UNION

    12:44 ~U 25.11.13

    Armenia's accession to the Customs Union will be high on the agenda
    of the Armenian-Russian presidential meeting scheduled for December 2,
    political scientist Hrant Melik-Shahnazaryan told Tert.am.

    "It will also be within the framework of the previously reached
    agreements. I think the presidents' meeting will give a new impetus
    to the process," the expert said. He points out great expectations
    in the context of the latest regional developments. Both Turkey
    has intensified its regional activities and competition between
    the European Union and Russia has been stepped up. By and large,
    the region has turned into a center of geopolitical competition.

    "Therefore, a rather wide range of issues is going to be discussed at
    the bilateral presidential meeting, with a view to reaching unanimity
    on all of them," Melik-Shahnazaryan said.

    Political scientist Levon Shirinyan said that the issue of Armenia's
    accession to the Customs Union is settled.

    "The issue was settled on September 3. Russia decided to create
    a power center in the world, with neither China nor the United
    States objecting to it. But the European Union is bargaining for its
    influence," he said. Armenia's leadership must expedite accession to
    the Customs Union.

    "Armenia will only benefit. But it must also feel responsible for
    each of its steps. Today's decision is for decades," the expert said.
