/PanARMENIAN.Net/ To enter Turkish market, Armenia has to conduct
a serious legislative work, ARF Dashnaktsutyun representative, ex RA
Agriculture Minister David Lokyan told at "NKR conflict: new realities"
international conference in Karabakh.

According to PanARMENIAN.Net reporter, David Lokyan noted that
the Turkish market is safely protected from foreign imports. After
establishment of diplomatic relations with Turkey, negotiations for
free trade rules should become a priority task for Armenia. Otherwise,
no Armenian product will be competitive on the Turkish market.

Besides, David Lokyan stated, Turkey is included in EU customs’
borders list, which can turn into a serious issue for Armenia. "It’s
important for RA Government to undertake steps towards conclusion of
free trade zone agreement with EU and starting of similar negotiations
with Turkey," he added.
