EXPERT SAYS ARMENIAN MARKET WILL NOT BE ABLE TO RESIST TURKISH ECONOMY
“We don’t think that opening of the border means rejection of Genocide or rejection of territorial ownership, though some points are still under threat,” expert Edward Helhenyan of the “Mitq” (conception) analytical center told at news conference.
The most dangerous thing is the economic matter after the border is opened, expert said. According to him 160 times less product are exported from Armenia but more imported, and when the border is opened the figure will be grow by two or even three times.
“Currently $178mln products are imported into Armenia and exported only 1.7mln. In this case Armenian market will not be able to resist the Turkish economy,” the expert said.
