Action against import of products from Turkey and Azerbaijan (video)
Members of “Protest action against Turkish products” today have gathered outside the Government building. They handed over a letter-petition to Department for Reception of Citizens and Discussion of Petitions of the Government.
Member of the initiative Arman Ghukasyan told “A1+”, “They said that they would answer the letter maximum in a month.”
In reply to the question which the initiative’s alternative is in this issue, Arman answered, “There are precise economics calculations that it is possible to get rid of the Turkish products in 2 years. There is an alternative to the Turkish production; it may be Iranian, Chinese and other markets. We also offer to free the micro-business of taxes for two years.”
In addition to these offers, there is also another offer, “We offer to develop a draft, as there is no law in Armenia which bans the import of products from Turkey and Azerbaijan. It is known that two years ago Azerbaijani garlic was found in one of the stores. There must be also the society’s will; since 1991 we have got used to importing Turkish products. Today we offer alternative ways. Taking into account national dignity and security reasons, we should understand that Turkey is the backer of terrorism,” noted member of the initiative.
