ArmInfo.Armenia intends to raise in the Eurasian Economic Union the issue of the possibility of lifting restrictions on movement in the context of the  coronavirus. This was announced on September 10 at a government  meeting by the Prime Minister RA Nikol Pashinyan.

According to him, as of today, the roads to Russia and other CIS  countries are practically closed. As the situation improves at the  EAEU level, the question of the possibility of lifting restrictions  will be raised in order to understand when and under what conditions  this will happen. The first discussions on this issue, as Nikol  Pashinyan noted, have already begun.

The head of government also said that from mid-September about a  dozen foreign airlines will resume operating regular flights with  Armenia. The Civil Aviation Committee of the country summarizes the  number of applications for the resumption of flights, and there are  all preconditions for the resumption of air communication between  Armenia and other countries from mid-September.  He also pointed out  that citizens of foreign countries arriving in the country, having  passed a coronavirus test, and having received a negative result  during the day, may not undergo a 14-day quarantine.
