YEREVAN, MAY 17, ARMENPRESS. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan assures that Armenia’s interests are taken into consideration in the EEU-Iran interim free trade agreement.
“The agreement is very important for us, and all interests of the Republic of Armenia are taken into account there [in the agreement],” the PM told reporters after today’s Cabinet meeting.
Asked if he finds it possible for Russia to obstruct the implementation of this agreement, Pashinyan reminded that Russia itself is also a party to this agreement – as a member of the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU).
He ruled out that Russia can anyhow obstruct the agreement.
The EEU-Iran interim free trade agreement was signed May 17 in Astana, Kazakhstan.
