YEREVAN. - Armenia should use all the opportunities on different economic platforms, representative of Tsarukyan alliance, Ararat Zurabyan, said on Monday at the debate between the parties and alliances participating in the country’s parliamentary elections.

In his words, the EAEU is first and foremost an economic union and thus Armenia should maximally use the opportunities on different economic platforms. He also noted that all the states—even in case of political controversies—look for economic platforms, which correspond to the EAEU capacities. Furthermore, Zurabyan added that personally supporting the European integration, he thinks that if Armenia refused to joint the EAEU, Russia would close all its channels for entering other markets. “I assured myself of this by Ukraine’s example,”he noted.
