PM addresses Round Table in frame of Eurasian Economic Prospects international forum

Honorable Mr Naryshkin,
Honorable Mr Sahakyan,
Dear Members of Parliament,
Ladies and Gentlemen:

On behalf of the Government of the Republic of Armenia and myself, I welcome all the organizers and participants of this representative forum.

We attach great importance to discussions like this, which help us assess the pace of integration processes and identify the development trends.

Armenia sees the EEU as the most favorable format to develop relationship based on the ideas of free movement of goods, services, capital and labor. In practical terms, by joining the EEU, Armenia becomes part of a 170-million-strong market that makes it more attractive for long-term investment.

Turnover between member-States is not subject to customs processing within the EEU, which reduces costs and delivery times. Neither are there any technical barriers to mutual trade, since a single conformity rating system is being applied. At the same time, manufacturers are allowed to develop a system of production cooperatives.

The EEU further deepens those bilateral relations already existent between the member-States, which increases the possibility of interstate cooperation in the sphere of trade. This is particularly important against the background of the ongoing geopolitical and economic processes.

Dear Colleagues,

Armenia stands ready to put the wealth of expertise gained all the way through systemic and infrastructure reforms at the service of integration processes. I would like to stress that our top priority is to meet the expectations of the peoples of the Eurasian Economic Union member-States and thus enhance significantly the quality of life and the well-being of our citizens,

I am hopeful that the proposals voiced at the forum will find practical application.

Concluding my speech, I would like to reiterate my greetings to the participants of the Round Table and wish you fruitful work.

Thank you.
