ArmInfo.We have prepared a document on a permanent free trade regime between Iran and the EAEU countries for final signing. This was stated by the Minister of Economy of Armenia Vahan Kerobyan on the sidelines of the opening of the "Free Economic Zones of Iran" exhibition.

According to him, positions between the EAEU countries are being  specified at this stage, after which the parties can proceed to the  final signing of the document.
