YEREVAN. – EU Commissioner said he is skeptical that a serious legal
document will be managed with Armenia by the time of the Vilnius
summit.

Å tefan Fule noted that Association Agreement and DCFTA is one treaty.

You cannot separate one from another, he added.

“I came to listen to Armenian colleagues. They wish to offer a
new legal framework that will enable to move us beyond the existing
framework of cooperation agreements. We would be very happy to engage
in that process. I am skeptical about the serious legal document,”
the EU official said, adding that he is hopeful there will be concrete
formats.

Armenia is still in the discussions and negotiations, he added.
