ARMENIAN POLITICIAN CONCERNED OVER ARMENIA'S ACCESSION TO CUSTOMS UNION
16:33 * 05.02.14
Leader of the National Self-Determination Union party Paruyr Hayrikyan
spoke of the roadmap for Armenia's accession to the Customs Union at
a meeting with journalists on Wednesday.
He is concerned that, from now on, Armenia will have to report any
of its steps to Moscow, which was the case in the USSR times.
"We will reach the point when we declare Russian our state language.
We will have to go to Moscow to have our urine tested only to visit
neighboring Iran," he said.
Hayrikyan is sure that prices will rise after Armenia joins the Customs
Union, and the "first fruits" can be seen in the Armenian-Russian
gas agreements.
"Neither the Collective Security Treaty Organization nor Russia is
honoring its commitments," he said.
According to Hayrikyan, gas could be supplied to Armenia's population
at a price four times as low as the current price. However, Armenia's
authorities proved self-willed.
