Recently, the Armenian side had problems at the Verin Lars checkpoint. around 60 Armenian trucks were piled up at the checkpoint. Minister of Economy Vahan Kerobyan informed Aysor.am that the reason for the accumulation is that the Russian side is checking the quality of alcoholic beverages, particularly brandy.
Since April of this year, the company “SIND EM INTERNATIONAL” has started to carry out cargo transportation by sea in the Novorossiysk-Batum, Batum-Novorossiysk direction. It is trying to become an alternative version of Upper Lars for Armenia.
Aysor.am asked the director of the company, Davit Iloyan, whether they have faced the same problems. I cannot say what will happen in the future. I hope that we will not have problems in the future. However, I should note that the problems related to the sale of cognac in Upper Lars are not new.”
To the observation of how it happens that there is an inspection in Upper Lars, but not in the case of transportation by sea, Iloyan replied: “I cannot say what the reason is.” At the checkpoint, the risks are taken into account: what to check and what not. I guess the risks are big there. Inspections are carried out here as well, but not so strictly.
