YEREVAN: China signed a memorandum with Armenia to provide the former Soviet republic with a mobile inspection system to help facilitate the country’s customs inspection service.
The memo was signed by Chinese Ambassador to Armenia Tian Changchun and Gagik Khachatrya, head of Armenia’s State Revenue Committee, at a cargo terminal of the Armenian Customs Service (ACS).
Under the deal, a new “Nuctech” mobile container and vehicle inspection system, estimated at over 3 million US dollars, will be presented to ACS as part of China’s aid to Armenia this year.
Khachatrya believed that the new system, with excellent screening features and radioactivity monitoring, will definitely increase the efficiency of the ACS work.
