VARTAN OSKANIAN:NEGOTIATIONS OF YEREVAN WITH EU DELAYED BEACUSE OF
PROBLEMS WITH NEIGHBORS
Yerevan, June 08. ArmInfo. Vartan Oskanian, RA Foreign Minister,
conditioned the slow tempo of Yerevan’s negotiation’s with EU within
the framework of “New Neighborhood” initiative by the current problems
of the neighbors with EU.
He stated this at today’s press conference.
Mr. Oskanian reminded that the negotiations between Armenia and EU are
officially completed. Though, from the aspect of the content, there
are almost no unsettled issues. “I even think that in our case there
is no need in the next tour,” he said. At the same time, he added that
the process faces certain obstacles conditioned by the fact that EU
hasn’t decided “to separate” the three South Caucasus states and work
with each of them separately. “EU wants to cooperate with “the group”
of the three republics, but our neighbors still have some unsettled
problems,” he stated.
