DIAMOND DELIVERY FROM RUSSIA STARTS IN SUMMER
It is quite possible that in this summer the delivery of diamond raw materials from Russia will be implemented to Armenia, said Nerses Yeritsyan the minister of economics in a press conference today. The Minister explained why the delivery has been stopped: there were some problems in the customs service.
The minister notified that on February 6 when the Prime Ministers of Armenia and Russia met the chairman of the Russian Government authorized the minister of Finance to organize the meeting between the customs representatives of Armenia and Russia to solve the problem. Whereas the presidential elections implemented in the both countries have stopped the cooperation in this regard.
Remind: On August 6 Armenian Government and “ALROSA” company signed a contract according to which Russian diamonds will be processed in Armenia.
