MP: Armenia, which has a ruined agriculture, can offer nothing to
Eurasian market
Saturday, October 18, 15:39
Armenia, which has a ruined agriculture, can export nothing to the
market of the Eurasian Union. Lyova Khachatryan, MP from the
Prosperous Armenia Party, thinks that Armenia's agriculture is
absolutely unready to join the EAEU.
"Production needs money, means, investments. How can we speak of
export if the authorities are destroying not only the small and medium
businesses, but also the agriculture due to their policy?" Khachatryan
said at today's press conference.
He said that the prime cost of the agricultural equipment is too high
and the loan rates are also high.
The MP pointed out the land contamination due to the operation of
small-scale hydropower plants. 200 ha of land plots are contaminated
in Aragatsotn region. "The HPPs have been built without a relevant
study of the local conditions", said Khachatryan.
