State Revenue Committee chief warns against attempts to import Turkish goods into Armenia

Chairman of Armenia’s State Revenue Committee (SRC) Edvard Hovhannisyan on Wednesday warned against any attempts to import Turkish goods into Armenia.

“Georgia’s land borders have been open since June 1, the movements of individuals are allowed for a certain period of time, but the ban on the import of Turkish goods remains in place. It also applies to goods imported for personal use by individuals,” the SRC chief told reporters in the parliament.

Reminding people of the government decision to ban the import of all Turkish goods into Armenia from January 1, which remains in force for six months, Hovhannisyan urged citizens not to try to import Turkish goods into Armenia via the Georgian border, stressing all such attempts will be prevented.

He assured that the baggage inspection at the customs checkpoints, in general, will be carried out in accordance with the existing rules.

“I am sure our citizens are well aware of the fact that all items and luggage are subject to inspection, if necessary, when passing through a customs checkpoint,” Hovhannisyan said.

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
