Opening border with Turkey will decrease monopoly in Armenian market

PanARMENIAN.Net - Opening of RA-Turkish border will result in competitiveness increase, while monopoly in Armenian market will slump significantly, Head of RF Antimonopoly Service Igor Artemyev believes.



According to RF Antimonopoly expert, there should not be any concern over trade expansion of Turkish goods, as the market situation can be controlled by policy implemented. "It's up to you whether to slightly or fully open the market," he said. In this context Artemyev explained that RA Government has to stimulate local production in order to meet competition with Turkish manufacturers, as well as implement correct tax and customs policy.
