Armenian Government proposes to introduce temporary customs privileges
for the import of modern technologies in agriculture

Yerevan August 10

Naira Badalyan. In the agriculture of Armenia, it is necessary to
introduce temporary customs privileges for the import of modern
technologies. Relevant instruction was announced by Prime Minister of
Armenia Karen Karapetian on August 10 at a Government meeting.

According to the Minister, for the import of new technologies within
the framework of the implementation of state support programs aimed at
developing the country's agriculture in leasing agricultural
machinery, establishing anti-hail networks, introducing drip
irrigation and creating intensive fruit gardens, it is necessary to
introduce temporary customs privileges. According to the head of
government, in the process of implementing these programs, existing
customs duties can become an additional burden for farmers. "Taking
into account the fact that local producers do not fully meet the needs
of the market, it is necessary to define temporary incentive measures
in this area," Karen Karapetyan said.

Proceeding from this, Prime Minister instructed Minister of
Agriculture Ignatiy Arakelyan, Minister of Economic Development and
Investments Suren Karayan, Head of State Revenue Committee Vardan
Harutyunyan to submit proposals on establishing temporary incentives
for the import of technologies and measures of state support of local
production in agriculture within a month.

Emil Lazarian: “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
