Opening of Armenian-Turkish border to promote Armenia's economic development
Analyzing the economic potentials of Armenia and Turkey, Dashnak MP Artsvik Minasyan introduced ARFD bureau's document enumerating all the risks that may be caused by Armenian-Turkish Protocols. "We have revealed 53 problems demanding urgent solution," Minasyan told a news conference in Yerevan.

Head of Parliamentary Committee on Economic Issues Vardan Ayvazyan disagreed with him arguing that in case of border opening Armenia's export will increase by 38% and GDP will record a 3% growth.

"Border opening will give us chance to develop Armenia's economy," he noted.
