A working group to deal with Ukraine’s accusation of violations of
rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO) was formed in Armenian
Ministry of Finance.

As a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter was told in the Ministry, discussions
are under way but introduction of amendments in the tax legislation
demands time.

Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy revealed a discriminatory taxation of
Ukrainian tobacco products in Armenia. Kyev is planning to settle
the issue with the help of WTO mechanisms, as in case with Georgia.

Informal consultations with Armenia have already started.
