YEREVAN. – The document on Armenia's joining Eurasian Economic Union will be signed this year, President Serzh Sargsyan said in an interview with Armnews television.

The issue was among those discussed with President Vlaidmir Putin on Sunday.

“We had a bilateral meeting, longer than yesterday's trilateral meeting, and talked about all the issues of the Armenian-Russian agenda: all issues that could be a matter of concern for our society, starting with the timing and structure of credit funds needed to extend the life of nuclear power plant as quite a large grant is needed, and up to the terms and conditions of accession to the Eurasian Economic Union, as well as issues of military and technical cooperation,” President said.

Asked whether Armenia will join Eurasian Economic Unino this year, Serzh Sargsyan said we never imagined that the accession will happen this year.

“Probably it is about the signing of a document on accession? I do not think that we will not sign the document of accession to the Eurasian Economic Union. I think that we will sign it,” he emphasized.
