DISCUSSED AT CONSULTATION HELD BY PRESIDENT
YEREVAN, MARCH 28, NOYAN TAPAN. On March 28, RA President held a
consultation in connection with the elaboration of the EU-Armenia
country action plan within the framework of the New Neighborhood
European policy. Members of the government participated in the
discussion. “We should already decide what we are going to do, what
directions will be included and how much fast we will advance. This is
a very important moment for the country. We may be given an
opportunity of serious assistance in the current reforms, in the
concretization of their future direction and concentrate our power in
their realization being assisted by the EU structures,” RA President
mentioned. According to Robert Kocharian, while choosing the
directions of cooperation and programs we should also pay attention to
the accents made recently in the European Commission’s report on
Armenia published lately. According to RA President’s Press Service,
Robert Kocharian assigned the heads of all departments to submit
concrete programs proceeding from the priorities of their spheres
within a 1-month term. They will be discussed in the inter-department
sub-committee established especially for this purpose and will be
sumbitted to the EU Cooperation Council in autumn, after passing
through the expertise.
