YEREVAN. – Serious problems have emerged on the border in terms of
apricot exports, economist Tatul Manaseryan stated during a press
conference on Wednesday.

He informed that hundreds of tons of apricots were dumped as a result
of being held for too long, and subsequently rotting, at Armenia’s
customs checkpoint.

As per Manaseryan, the Armenian Ministry of Agriculture has not done
enough work to explain to exporters as to which accompanying documents
are needed.

To note, the Agriculture Ministry had released a statement, according
to which Armenia’s apricot exports had broken a new record in 2013,
with approximately 24,000 tons.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
