ArmInfo. EU High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security
Policy Javier Solana thinks that the election of the new Armenian
president will become a good opportunity to improve Armenia’s relations
with the neighbor countries and intensify the efforts to settle the
Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.
According to Solana’s statement, EU welcomes the presidential
election in Armenia, which was held chiefly in compliance with
the OSCE standards, and the preliminary assessments of the election
prove this. He also pointed out the high turnout at the election. The
European Union adheres to further consolidation of cooperation with
Armenia on the basis of the European Neighborhood Policy, Solana’s
statement says. In addition, the Armenian governmental press-service
told ArmInfo that Solana congratulated Armenian people on holding
the presidential election with a high public turnout.
