YEREVAN – An Armenian-Russian group is now working on ways to
stimulate integration processes, taking into account some geographic
characteristics, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan said.
“Armenia said it is interested in integration processes in the CIS and
EurAsEC. During the recent meeting, the presidents of our countries
raised that issue and Vladimir Vladimirovich [Putin] pointed out
very precisely that Armenia has no common border with EurAsEC and
the Customs Union,” Sargsyan said in an interview with Interfax.
He said there is no precedent in world practice when a country without
a common border is a member of the Customs Union, and therefore a
working group has been created on the orders of the presidents of
Armenia and Russia.
“The group will work out instruments that will stimulate integration
processes with regard for these characteristics,” Sargsyan said.
