/PanARMENIAN.Net/ "Eastern Partnership is a multilateral forum for
exchanging views, solving problems and overcoming difficulties,"
John O’Rourke, Head of the European Neighborhood Policy general
coordination unit in the European Commission’s Directorate-General
for External Relations, told reporters in Minsk on October 2.

He enumerated for 4 main platforms of cooperation: democracy and human
rights, economic integration, energy security and person-to-person
contacts.

The EU and the six former Soviet countries participating in the Eastern
Partnership can meet the ambitious targets of the new program only
on the basis of common values, BelaPAN quotes European Commission
representative as saying.
