Kalamanov: Entry into Customs Union cannot limit sovereignty of any state
Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union will be beneficial both to Armenia and Russia, Russian Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Georgy Kalamanov told reporters after the 11th session of the CSTO Interstate Commission on Military and Economic Cooperation.
He stressed that joining the Customs Union cannot limit the sovereignty of any state.
Mr Kalamanov expressed hope that the process of Armenia’s entry into the CU will be completed by 2014.
“Mechanisms of cooperation within the Customs Union framework have been developed recently. I believe that it will be possible to speed up Armenia’s membership in the organization,” he said.
