Russian e-commerce firm Ozon has started sales of goods in Armenia, the company said, its latest expansion into the former Soviet Union at a time when Western countries are widely shunning Russian business.

Ozon has already opened logistics centres in Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. It has opened local offices in China and Turkey, designed to bring more sellers onto the platform.

Delivery would take around seven days at first, Ozon said. The company plans to develop logistics infrastructure in Armenia, including having its own delivery service there and a network of pick-up and drop-off points, it said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
