Robert Kocharian, Armenia's second president, has yet to express an
opinion regarding Armenia's stated readiness to join the Russian-led
Customs Union.
Viktor Soghomonyan, who head's Kocharyan's office, told Hetq that,
"The former president will express an opinion within a reasonable
timeframe. But I can't be specific."
When asked if Kocharian's frequent visits to Russia had anything to
do with the issue, Soghomonyan responded that the former president
travelled to Moscow to take part in Sistema company board meetings.
Kocharian is the director of the board. (Sistema JSFC is the largest
publicly-traded diversified holding company in Russia and the CIS)
"Robert Kocharian attends board meetings at least once per month,"
noted Soghomonyan.
He also stressed that Kocharian has held no discussions, l either in
Armenia or Russia, about Armenia joining the Customs Union.
