AMBASSADOR: ARMENIA’S MEMBERSHIP IN EURASIAN ECONOMIC UNION MAKES COUNTRY MORE ATTRACTIVE FOR FRENCH ENTREPRENEURS
[ Part 2.2: "Attached Text" ]
YEREVAN, October 22. /ARKA/. French Ambassador to Armenia Henri
Reynaud, who is completing his diplomatic mission here, said
Wednesday at a news conference that Armenia’s membership in
the Eurasian Economic Union makes the country more attractive for
French entrepreneurs.
He said that Armenia’s President Serzh Sargsyan’s statement
that a 170-million, not three-million market will be open for the
entrepreneurs doing business in Armenia is a strong argument that
can’t fail interest, since it promises good prospects.
In his words, many French companies are already trying to use these
opportunities. Mr. Reynaud said that Armenia, after joining the
Eurasian Union, keeps stressing its ties with the European Union and
remains steadfast in its determination to cooperate, and the European
Union, on its side, wants to retain strong ties with Armenia.
The ambassador said the European Union, and particularly France,
will keep cooperating with Armenia.
On October 10, the Supreme Eurasian Economic Council gave its
approval to Armenia’s accession to the Eurasian Economic Union
as the union member countries’ leaders gathered in Minsk. As
a result, the accession agreement was signed. It means Armenia,
along with Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, will become a full member
of the union that will start functioning on January 10, 2015. ---0----
