Armenian government approves roadmap for entry into Customs Union

At the session held today, the Armenian government approved the schedule of measures (‘roadmap’) for Armenia’s accession to the Customs Union and the Common Economic Space of Russia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus.

The issue was also discussed at the working consultation yesterday, Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan said. In particular, the matter concerns the documents’ editing. “It is important that all the translations of the texts be as correct as possible because the terms in the documents we are going to approve will be taken as a basis later. So I want to ask the ministries of justice and economy to pay great attention to the terms so that the Russian and Armenian versions will correspond to each other,” the prime minister said.

He reminded those present that there were discrepancies between some terms during yesterday’s consultation. “Different terms are used in Armenian and Russian so we should be more careful,” the prime minister stressed.
