According to Sarkisyan, only three EAEU members signed a statement on the development of EAEU trade policies and the EAEU Customs Code during the meeting as Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko did not attend the event and Kyrgyzstan refused to sign them.
"All documents were signed except the first issue on the agenda — a statement of the development of EAEU trade policies, which three countries signed but Kyrgyzstan refused to sign, and the second document — the Customs Code, which three countries signed but Kyrgyzstan refused to sign," Sarkisyan told reporters in St. Petersburg.
The EAEU is an international organization for regional economic integration, comprising Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia.
