Armenia not considering withdrawal from EAEU

Armenia is not considering its withdrawal from the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), Armenia's Deputy Parliamentary Chairman Ruben Rubinyan said.

"There's no such item on the agenda," Rubinyan said, when asked whether Yerevan's closer ties with the European Union might prompt Armenia's withdrawal from the EAEU.

Earlier, Armenian Parliament Speaker Alen Simonyan said that Armenia is ready to deepen relations with the European Union and become an EU candidate.
