/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenia at present is not ready to speak of EU full
membership, Armenian FM Vartan Oskanian stated at a news conference
in Yerevan. In his words, unless the EU decides how it will expand,
speaking of it makes no sense. "Our task is to maximally implement
the ENP," he said.

In his turn Finnish FM Erkki Tuomioja underscored that each country
chooses its format of relations with various structures, e.g. the
EU and NATO. "Finland is not a NATO member and we are not going to
become such.

However, if, for example, Armenia wants it, it is its business,
no one will object," he remarked.
