YEREVAN. – Armenian cargos are not allowed for transit entrance in Turkey, despite they have permission of European Conference of Ministers of Transportation and Black Sea economic cooperation, Armenian Minister of Transportation and Communication Manuk Vardanyan told at the International Road Transport Union (IRU) conference in Yerevan on Tuesday.

However, Turkish trucks enter Armenia without any problem. Turkey is also a member of IRU.

 In addition, Armenian ministry of Transportation and Communication and IRU will sign a memorandum, which allows Armenian cargo’s entrance to Turkey, chairman of Armenian International Road Carriers Association Herbert Hambardzumyan told Armenian News-NEWS.am. The memorandum will give Armenian authorities a chance to maneuver in negotiations with Turkey.
