The priorities of execution of the Action Plan of the European
Neighborhood Policy were clearly outlined during RA President
Robert Kocharyan’s meetings with EU officials in the framework of his
three-day working visit to the Kingdom of Belgium. RA Foreign Minister
told a press conference today that the president’s visit and meetings
were effective, since these clearly revealed the qualitative change
in Armenia-EU relations on the basis of a fundamentally new document,
the Action Plan.
Armenia can now join the statements of the European Union on foreign
and security policy. The Minister said this is also a new level of
relations, since Armenia is among the countries which know about EU
positions on processes underway in different sites of the world in
advance. According to the Minister’s assessment, qualitative changes
are apparent in economic relations, as well.
