14.02.2005 17:43

/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The possibility of Armenia’s eligibility for EU
membership will not be subject to discussion for a long time, head of
the EU Commission in Armenia and Georgia Alexis Leber stated, Arminfo
news agency reports. However not being an EU member Armenia can join
the programs of trade relations with the EU. Thus, consultative
programs will encourage Armenian manufacturers to export goods, which
are in demand in the European market, Mr. Leber noted. In his words,
the implementation of New Neighborhood program does not provide for
Armenia’s EU membership. It is to establish a political and economic
dialogue between EU and Armenia. “The movement towards Europe does
not mean entry to the European Union”, he said noting at the same
time that the program will allow realization of projects directed to
the establishment of peace, development and prosperity in the South
Caucasus.
