YEREVAN. - The transit via Georgia seriously influences the prices of goods delivered to Armenia, Armenian PM Hovik Abrahamyan stated in the parliament Wednesday.

The transit of goods from the Georgian ports to Armenian borders is almost equal by price to or even slightly exceeds the cost of the delivery to the Georgian ports from Europe or even China. This hinders the Armenian goods from being cheaper, Abrahamyan added.

But inside Armenia nobody interferes with doing business or makes raise the prices, the PM said.

“I will reiterate: anyone who wants to deal with import can do that. I will be consistent. No agency will create special privileged conditions for ones and artificial obstacles for others,” he noted.
