Process of exporting Armenian goods to U.S. getting easier

Armenian, goods to U.S

The United States will provide preferential conditions to Armenian producers for the export of certain goods, the Voice of America reveals.

According to the report, the issue was discussed at the first Council Meeting of 2018 organized in the framework of the U.S. – Armenia Trade and Investment Framework Agreement.

According to the head of the Armenian delegation, deputy minister of economic development Hovhannes Azizyan, the sides discussed the issue of facilitating the documentation process for small and medium-sized exporters.

“The meeting in Washington showed that both Armenia and the United States are interested in deepening economic cooperation,” the deputy minister said.

“The expansion refers not only to the activation of trade turnover or the investment framework, but also their diversification.”

Also, the Armenian side has assured that its membership in the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) will by no means hinder the development of economic cooperation with the U.S.

Buyers of Turkish goods sponsors of terrorism, Armenian economist says

f5717740b5e542_5717740b5e57d.thumbArmenian economist Tatul Manaseryan, at a meeting with reporters on Wednesday, spoke of struggle against import and sale of Turkish products in Armenia.

“Many of our citizens are seasonal migrant workers and send hard-earned money to their families in Armenia. They, in turn, buy Turkish goods thus sponsoring Turkey’s war industry,” Mr Manaseryan said.

He calls for “coming to senses” and saying “yes” to Armenian goods.

“A country that was more dependent on Turkey, severed its economic ties with Turkey for moral reasons and applied sanctions against it. I am speaking of Russia,” Mr Manaseryan said.

Armenia could do the same.

Mr Manaseryan points out the role of both the government and private sector, as well as that of civil society. Success is impossible if one of them fails.

“We must do way with the enemy within. Those buying Turkish goods are actually sponsoring terrorism,” the economist said.

As to what situation the Armenian businessmen importing Turkish goods will find themselves in, Mr Manaseryan said:

“We should not make a poor mouth and ask about what the people are going to do. We are a sovereign state and creating jobs for those people must be number one task for our country. Our country must encourage self-employment, exempt micro-businesses from taxes, and we applied to the government for that long ago. We have to launch an import substitution policy. We should be ashamed of not manufacturing the products we are importing.”
