The Armenian Time newspaper reported that the chairman of the State
Commission for Protection of Economic Commission Artak Shaboyan
revealed something unexpected in an interview with their reporter. He
informed that raw material of sugar, not sugar is imported to Armenia.
At least, according to Mr. Shaboyan and the documents they have
received and studied, the sugar consumed in Armenia is produced in
Armenia, in Akhuryan Sugar Factory owned by Samvel Alexanyan which is
the only factory in Armenia.
In fact, this is a sensational statement because sugar imported to
Armenia is subject to customs clearance, whereas raw materials are
not. Hence, sugar imported to Armenia is recorded as raw material and
is not cleared, in the result of which the state budget loses immense
revenues.
"In reality, sugar is imported to Armenia. According to some other
official information, about 80,000 tons a year. And instead of finding
out the truth the SCPEC is busy rolling public awareness videos on
TV," the newspaper writes.
