(SBU) On October 4 we delivered reftel points to Deputy
Minister of Trade and Economic Development Tigran Davtyan.
Davtyan told us he does not believe that Armenia has specific
wood packaging material regulations and that the majority of
imports to Armenia are packaged in plastic. He recognized
the benefits of consistent regulation across WTO member
states and said he would discuss with representatives from
the WTO whether further GOAM action on this issue is
warranted.
