Hraparak: Cigarette and alcohol prices may increase further

Prices of some types of cigarettes and alcoholic drinks will rise further after Armenia’s entry into the Customs Union. The matter concerns those goods that will be imported from a third country, Hraparak writes. 

“CIS countries, where the Free Trade Agreement operates, account for more than 77 percent of Armenia’s cigarette imports, but the matter concerns the remaining 23 percent,” the newspaper notes.
