Pashinyan is like a sparrow caught in a trap, but he will never withdraw from the EAEU for fear of losing power

Europe is not ready to finance the losses Armenia would incur from leaving the EAEU. Europe’s demands today are political; economically, Armenia is not of particular interest. Davit Ananyan, a member of the Governing Council of the “Wings of Unity” party, said this during an appearance on 168 TV.

“Even when Europe says that it will accept 80 percent of your agricultural products, first, this would take two years; second, your products would have to undergo standardization, and Europe would retain the authority to impose restrictions on certain goods. They would provide €52 million and a grant of 200 billion drams. Whatever the case, all of this would not be enough to cover the losses from leaving the EAEU,” Davit Ananyan said.

Speaking about the activities of the newly elected National Assembly, he noted that the parliament should become a genuine arena for political debate, with legislative initiatives formulated and submitted for broad public discussion.
