Armenia will give the Customs Union
countries access to the Middle East markets, Integration and Macroeconomics
Minister of the Eurasian Economic Commission Tatiana Valovaya said at the 2nd
Economic Forum of the Republican Party of Armenia "Armenia-Customs Union:
Opportunities and Challenges" on Saturday.
She said that though quite unstable, the Middle East
is a very interesting market.
According to Valovaya, free
transfer of goods in the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union will benefit
Armenia's business and will boost the country's exports. "Today Armenia
exports to the Customs Union mostly agricultural products but it may also
consider other options, for example, information technologies," Valovaya
said, noting that she was impressed by the tablets to be produced on the basis
of an Armenian operating system.
