YEREVAN, OCTOBER 18, ARMENPRESS. Joining the Customs Union will
enable Armenia to establish strategic relations with Russia on a more
fundamental platform. The Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia
Tigran Sargsyan stated this at the course of the meeting with the
participants of international media-forum held in Yerevan on October
17-20 under the slogan "On the Foot of Ararat".

to get rid of a number of limitations, which may arise, if Armenia

if we are not integrated to the Customs Union.
We cannot afford ourselves such a luxury."
