Republican Party Lawmaker Gagik Minasyan believes that Armenia’s membership to the Eurasian Economic Union will be advantageous to the country. “After great efforts we have found a convenient option with Russia in view of gas, oil and raw diamond prices,” he said. Among the negative effects, the MP singles out the increase in customs duties. Gagik Minasyan says that people with higher education will be able to easily find a job in Russia. At the same time, he underlines that the number of restrictions on migrants from other countries will not be applied in case of Armenians. Speaking about the downing of an Armenian helicopter by Azerbaijan which claimed the lives of three crew members, the Republican lawmaker said the tragedy happened in the result of indifferent behavior of the international community.
