Harutyunyan: There can be no customs point between Armenia and NKR
There can be no customs point between Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh in case of Armenia’s entry into the Eurasian Economic Union, Prime Minister of the Nagorno Karabakh Republic Ara Harutyunyan said at a meeting with the faculty and students of Artsakh University.
“A customs point is ruled out. By the way, some people today confuse the existing checkpoints with customs points, while their purpose is to control commodity and passenger turnover,” the NKR prime minister said.
“The existence of a customs point is impossible because it would mean the border’s control by frontier guards, whereas there are dozens of roads between Armenia and Nagorno Karabakh and it is technically impossible to control them,” Harutyunyan explained.
