A roadmap for the Armenian accession to the Customs Union and the
Common Economic Space shall be drawn up by the Moscow summit of the
Supreme Eurasian Economic Council due this December, Russian First
Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov said.
“A concrete decision has been made with regard to Armenia: the working
party will get down to business and the roadmap and the first outcomes
will be presented to the next session of the Council in Moscow in
December,” Shuvalov told reporters on Friday, following the Minsk
summit of the Eurasian Economic Council.
He said Armenia pledged to endorse the normative legal acts required
for its entry into the Customs Union within several months.
“The Armenian president asked the presidents of Customs Union states
for an opportunity of the soonest possible ratification of these
agreements,” Shuvalov said.
He added that Yerevan was prepared to join the Union regulations
without any exceptions or limitations.
Shuvalov did not rule out that Armenia might joint the integration
union in two steps, the Customs Union and the Common Economic Space.
