Armenia welcomes the suggestion of the European Commission to speed up
relations by implementing an action plan and expresses its readiness
to immediately start work on it, Armenian Foreign Ministry spokesman
Gamlet Gasparyan said while commenting on the European Commission’s
report on Armenia, which was drawn up within the framework of the New
Neighbourhood policy and published on 2 March.

Gasparyan said that the European Union will make a decision on drawing
up a joint action programme with Armenia. The report generalizes
relations between Armenia and the European Union, describes the
socioeconomic situation and political picture and is directed at
rendering assistance to the sides in the sphere of outlining the
priorities of the action plan and taking steps in various
spheres. Armenia will take into account the remarks of the European
Commission and compare them with its position, Gasparyan pointed out.
