GRANTING ARMENIA STATUS OF MARKET ECONOMY COUNTRY TO BECOME NEXT STEP OF APPROACH TO EU
The next step on the way of approach between Armenia and the European Union should become granting Armenia status of a country with market economy, which is an important aspect in recognizing it at the international arena. Co-chairman of the Armenian-European Economic Policy and Legal Advice Center Kenneth Munther stated in Yerevan today. After that the issue will enter the phase of political regulation, the overcoming of which will depend on further actions of both the EU and Armenia.
