According to Giorgi Ostkovich of the Higher School of Economics of the National Research University, the narrowing of economic ties with Russia and the rapprochement with the European Union have created difficulties for Armenia. The expert noted that Armenia has a lot of interaction with the Russian Federation in the field of resources, agriculture and industry. Leaving the EAEU will lead to loss of facilities, investment and revenue. The European market may provide income, but its volume is still unknown, and joining the European Union will take 5-6 years. "In the case of leaving the EAEU, the economic situation will worsen due to high ties with Russia," Ostkovich concluded, adding that Russia's exit from the Armenian market also remains a controversial issue.
