YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 28, ARMENPRESS. Armenia has a good business environment, a number of advanced companies. I think together we will be stronger. As reports “Armenpress” citing BelTA, the Speaker of the House of Representatives of the National Assembly of Belarus Vladimir Andreichenko stated this following the meeting with Chairman of the National Assembly of Armenia Galust Sahakyan

Among other things, Andreichenko underscored that MPs of Belarus and Armenia should pay more attention to building up trade between the two states. “The parties agreed that the trade between Belarus and Armenia does not meet the potential of the two countries. MPs should pay more attention to this issue. First of all, it pertains to Belarusian mechanical engineering products: Amkodor road building vehicles, MAZ heavy haulers. Armenia has confirmed that it needs them,” Vladimir Andreichenko said.

In his words, the countries enjoy partner relations. There is an inter-parliamentary commission, regular meetings. The countries support each other in the international arena and within inter-parliamentary organizations. “The states hold regular visits and election observation missions. The countries also have a well-developed commodity distribution network: for example, the Belarusian-Armenian Trading House,” the Speaker added.

As for Armenia's accession to the Eurasian Economic Union, Vladimir Andreichenko expressed confidence that the country has a potential for joining the EEU.

However, according to the Speaker, the agreement on Armenia's EEU entry has not been submitted to the House of Representatives yet. “As soon as we have it, we start working on it immediately,” Vladimir Andreichenko said.
