After Armenia’s decision on membership to the Customs Union it is important to understand the economic privileges and flaws. The Customs Union implies free trade circulation among the member states. At first sight, this seems like an ideal opportunity for us because our economic and trade relations with the main economic partner Russia will even more accelerate.
The most discussed political topic in Armenia now is the issue of Armenia joining a proposed Customs Union made of Belarus, Russia and Kazakhstan. Armenian president Serzh Sargsyan has come up with announcement saying that Armenia is committed to joining the Union. Most people who oppose to or are for joining the Union do not really know what it is.
