    EEU TO SIMPLIFY ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO TRADE PROCEDURES - VALOVAYA

    YEREVAN, March 31. /ARKA/. Alcohol and tobacco trade procedures will be
    simplified within the Eurasian Economic Union, said Tatyana Valovaya,
    member of the board for integration and macroeconomics at the Eurasian
    Economic Commission.

    Today certain excise stamps are required and certain rules need to
    be followed in selling Armenian alcohol and tobacco products in the
    EEU markets, Valovaya said.

    But an international agreement is being elaborated to amend these
    procedures, she said at a round-table discussion on barrier-free
    Eurasian market. The discussion was held to look into problems in
    economic relations between Armenia and the EEU and to facilitate
    faster adaption to the new conditions.

    Today efforts are made to complete the transition and ensure the
    EEU functions without exceptions and barriers, as instructed by
    the presidents, Valovaya said. She said meetings are arranged
    with businessmen in different countries to reveal and eliminate
    the barriers.

    Over the last one and a half years similar barriers were eliminated
    between businesses in Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus, and the same
    is being done now with Armenia, she said.

    According to Armenia's National Statistical Service, tobacco production
    output amounted to 65.4 billion drams in 2014, an increase of 36.5%.

    Armenia's cognac production output grew by 8.1% to 18,725,500 liters
    in 2014 compared to 2013. Wine production dropped by 8.2% to about
    130,900 liters in the period. A total of 9,502,300 liters of vodka was
    produced in 2014 (4.1% decline). Champagne production totaled 634,400
    liters (18.3% growth). Apart from this, 23,716,500 liters of beer were
    produced in the country in 2014 (19.5% growth). ($1 - 471.21 drams).
