VOLUME OF CARGO ARRIVING IN ARMENIA FROM CHINA REDUCED TWICE

Within the latest 2 months the volume of cargo arriving in Armenia from Chine reduced from 40 to 20 tons. Chairman of the state customs committee under the Armenian government Armen Avetisian told journalists today. In his words, as reported by “Arka” agency, due to an outbreak of atypical pneumonia in China all goods coming to Armenia from that country undergo “strict control” by corresponding services. “Goods pass the customs only after proper examination,” – A. Avetisian said.
