Armenian President Serzh Sargsyan said on Wednesday that his country
would complete all procedures to join the Russian-led Customs Union
this year.
"I'm sure that this year we will become a full-fledged member of the
Customs Union. Armenia will create a new environment, in which it will
be better protected and more competitive, Sargsyan said in a televised
New Year's speech.
Armenia decided in September to join the Russian-led Customs Union
which comprises Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. A roadmap on Yerevan's
admission was signed on Dec. 24.
In early December, Russia and Armenia also signed an intergovernmental
agreement to cancel export duties for supplies of natural gas, oil
products and rough diamonds to the South Caucasus nation.
