YEREVAN, September 14. /ARKA/. Poland is ready to facilitate the expansion of Armenia's economic ties with the European Union and the development of trade with the European market, stated Marcin Bosacki, State Secretary of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
"Armenia likely needs to diversify its economic ties and export destinations. In this regard, European Union countries, including Poland, are a natural choice," he said in an interview with Armenpress.
Bosacki noted that Armenia's advantages in terms of access to the European market include the IT sector, game development companies, and agriculture.
According to him, the European Union is a large market with a population of approximately 460 million people and relatively high purchasing power by global standards.
At the same time, Bosacki cited existing barriers to third countries within the EU as one of the main obstacles to expanding trade. According to him, eliminating or at least mitigating these barriers is crucial for Armenia.
Bosacki also spoke of the need for trade agreements, acknowledging the possibility of concluding pre-accession agreements.
He stated that Poland imported 1,000 tons of fruit from Armenia this year, while this market within the European Union was temporarily open to Armenia.
Bosacki noted that if Armenia were to obtain candidate country status for EU membership, it would, in his opinion, significantly facilitate greater access to the European market for both agricultural and industrial producers.
He cited Armenia's geographical distance from Europe and the complexity of transport routes as another obstacle.
At the same time, Bosacki expressed confidence that Armenian exports to the European Union would increase.
He also emphasized Poland's readiness to support Armenia in expanding trade and deepening economic cooperation with the EU.
