YEREVAN. - Foreign film shooting in Armenia should be exempted from taxes.
New Armenian Culture Minister Armen Amiryan said the aforementioned to journalists after the Cabinet session on Thursday.
In his opinion, this can interest and attract foreign producer centers, and thus spark interest towards Armenia among foreign audience.
“We need new joint film projects with Russia, China and neighboring Iran. The meetings with the representatives of producer centers from these countries are already scheduled. The first meeting will be held in Russia, where many of our compatriots work in film industry,” Amiryan noted.
