EU expects stronger and deeper relations with Armenia: Baerbock

 19:39, 3 November 2023

YEREVAN, NOVEMBER 3, ARMENPRESS. The European Union expects stronger and deeper relations with Armenia.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Germany Annalena Baerbock announced this during the press conference held in Yerevan after the meeting with Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, commenting on Nikol Pashinyan's statement  that the Republic of Armenia is ready to be closer to the EU, as close as the EU would consider it possible.

According to her, Armenia and Germany are exchanging ideas in this direction and there are great opportunities for the cooperation.

“We closely exchange thoughts, ideas, and there are more opportunities for cooperation. In these difficult geopolitical times, it is imperative to conclude a peace treaty between Armenia and Azerbaijan that will lead to reaching peace in the region. In this situation, especially economic relations can be deepened even further,” Baerbock said, adding that peace is needed in the region so that there is an influx of large investments and the economy develops, which will also be an incentive to simplify the visa regime.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
