YEREVAN. – New sanctions on Russia carry no risks for Armenia, Armenian acting Minister of Economic Development and Investments Tigran Khachatryan told reporters on Friday.

According to him, since Armenia and Russia are parts of a common customs economic zone, this allows free shipment of goods, products, and services.

“So, whatever sanctions on Russia are imposed, it will not affect the Armenian realities, as well as economy and Armenian-Russian relations,” Khachatryan added.
