RUSSIA'S ECONOMY MINISTRY COMMISSIONS STUDY FOR GAUGING EFFECT FROM JOINING OF SOME CIS COUNTRIES TO CUSTOMS UNION
YEREVAN, September 26. /ARKA/. Russia's economy ministry has released
2.15 million rubles to commission a study for gauging the effect
from joining of some CIS countries to the Customs Union of Russia,
Belarus and Kazakhstan.
The study will assess changes in customs regimes of Armenia, Kyrgyzstan
and other countries which will be named by the ministry after the
launch of the study.
"The difference between the present import tariffs in CIS countries
and the Customs Union's single tariff creates different negotiation
conditions and therefore requires quantitative assessment,"
Novosti-Armenia cites the ministry's document referring to RIA
Novosti. "In this connection, it is necessary to assess how the
accession will change the amount and the cost of customs duties of
the countries.
The study has to be completed before December 15, 2013. Applications
for participation in the tender are accepted until October 28. Results
of tender will be announced on November 5.
In early September, Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan and his Russian
counterpart, Vladimir Putin, made a joint statement, according to
which Armenia has decided to join the Customs Union and to take part
in formation of the Eurasian Union in the future.
Kyrgyzstan's government filed its official application for membership
in the Customs Union in spring 2011 and is expected to obtain it later
this year. Kyrgyzstan's authorities expect that the country will get
certain preferences from this membership. ---0----
