The Armenian government announced a six-month ban on importing Turkish goods in protest against the Turkey’s support for Azerbaijan in the Karabakh region.

The Armenian Ministry of Economy said, “The import ban will not lead to an increase in prices in the country because Turkish goods are not dominant on the market, and the imports from Russia, Belarus, Iran and China can replace them.”

The ban does not include items required to produce goods in Armenia.
