/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian President Serzh Sarsgyan said May 7 is a
significant date for all countries included in the Eastern Partnership
initiative.

"We all have a long way to cover. Armenia will be consistent in
fulfilling the commitments it undertook within European Neighborhood
Program," he said in his address to the first ever Eastern Partnership
summit that opened in Prague yesterday.

He said he has already signed a decree on the Action Plan regulating
the Armenia-EU cooperation for the next three years.

"Joining the European Neighborhood Program, Armenia signed 80 per cent
of documents on the Union’s foreign policy, what proves commonness
of approaches, views and positions," he said.

"The word Europe has become a synonym for tolerance, constructive
approach and peaceful solutions. Eastern Partnership should function
for a good cause. And we hope it will be a success," President
Sargsyan said.
