The Armenian National Assembly voted 70 to 5 today to adopt the bill
on Customs Regulations. Representatives of the Republican and ARF
factions participated in the voting with four factions boycotting.
The adoption of the customs package was connected with Armenia's
accession to the Eurasian Economic Union. Alexander Arzumanyan
said before the voting that "the package is fatal, and evasion is
unacceptable."
"I respect the right of any force to boycott, but we are ready to
stay and express opinion on this important bill," he said.
Member of the Heritage faction Zaruhi Postanjyan also refused to
boycott the voting. She urged the parliament to vote against the
package, while Khachatur Kokobelyan suggested to postpone the vote
until the legislative bodies of Belarus and Kazakhstan ratify the
Treaty on Armenia's Membership in EEU.
