YEREVAN, February 3 (RIA Novosti) - Armenia on Monday published a
roadmap for accession to the Russia-led Customs Union, which Yerevan
has pledged to join as Moscow seeks to deepen economic ties across
the former Soviet Union.
The document contains 150 different conditions that must be fulfilled
before Armenia can join the economic alliance of Russia, Belarus
and Kazakhstan, Armenian Economy Minister Vagram Avanesyan told a
government meeting.
Moscow is currently pushing to expand its economic influence in
former Soviet republics. Russian pressure has appeared to backfire
in Ukraine, however, where large street protests erupted in November
as Kiev backed off from economic integration with Europe and instead
signed off on closer ties with Russia.
Armenian President Serzh Sarksyan announced in September that his
country would join the Customs Union after a meeting with Russian
President Vladimir Putin in Moscow.

While the two countries are not contiguous, Russia is the largest
trading partner and biggest foreign investor in landlocked Armenia,
which shares a border with Iran and Turkey.
