EEC Minister considers exemplary Armenia’s figure of export of goods to EAEU market

YEREVAN, JANUARY 28, ARMENPRESS. The member states of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) have something to learn from the Armenian partners in terms of the export of goods in the Eurasian market, TatyanaValovaya, Member of the Board - Minister in charge of Integration and Macroeconomics at the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), said during today’s video conference dedicated to the EAEU’s 5th anniversary and the 25th anniversary of the Eurasian integration idea, in response to the question of Kyrgyz reporter, reports Armenpress.

The reporter said the EAEU provides great opportunity for export, but last year, the expert from their country to the other EAEU states has increased by a very little percent. The reporter was interested in the reason of this.

In response the EEC Minister said the Kyrgyz partners are not fully using the existing potential. “I think we all, Russians, Belarussians, Kyrgyz and Kazakhs have something to learn from the Armenian partners. Despite the complex geographical position, they are systematically exporting their goods to our market. In this sense we and the Kyrgyz partners have something to learn from them”, TatyanaValovaya said.

However, she noted that in 2017 the export of goods in Kyrgyzstan has increased by 21%.
