According to the government, the ban will allow to apply restrictions in line with the EEU legislation on the export of those goods, the on-site processing of which is expected to contribute to increasing the country's defense and security.

Deputy Minister of Economy Avag Avanesyan said the ban will support a set of measures of the government designed to enable local industrial enterprises to develop their own production. According to Avanesyan, as a result 300-350 new jobs are expected to be created.
