Haykakan Zhamanak: Drug prices to rise after entry into Customs Union

Prices for drugs will increase by 80-10 percent in Armenia after entry into the Customs Union, Haykakan Zhamanak writes. 

“The point is that currently Armenia’s drug imports are exempt from duties, while duties of 8-10 percent are in place for Customs Union countries. Drug prices already increased by about 7 percent in Armenia last year,” the newspaper says.
