YEREVAN. – Decision to join Eurasian Economic Union is Armenia's sovereign right, U.S. Ambassador to Armenia John Heffern said during his farewell media conference in Yerevan on Friday.

“We believe that any state has a sovereign right to join any international organization that it will choose. As soon as the country joins any customs union, it loses a part of its sovereignty, and decision-making becomes limited,” he said when asked whether Armenia may face restrictions from the western countries with joining EEU.

Armenia will become a member of the Eurasian Economic Union starting January 1, 2015.
