"This will help Armenian producers diversify their exports and bring more of their high-quality products to new markets," Kos wrote.

Support for exporters in Armenia
Against the backdrop of Russian trade restrictions, Armenia has expanded its support measures for exporters, particularly to EU countries. The government is compensating transportation costs and customs duties on shipments of fruits, vegetables, and flowers to the EU, the UK, and Canada, and is also providing subsidies for a range of export goods.
