The timing of the implementation of visa liberalisation measures with the European Union depends on Armenia, Interior Minister Arpine Sargsyan said.
Speaking at a joint press conference with EU Commissioner for Internal Affairs and Migration Magnus Brunner, Sargsyan said that within the framework of the visa liberalisation dialogue with the EU, a roadmap is being developed to define the deadlines for actions to be taken by the relevant Armenian institutions.
She said the aim is to make the results of the process visible to citizens as soon as possible.
“The visa liberalisation dialogue is also about providing our citizens with new opportunities,” the minister said, adding that the action plan provided by EU partners does not set a specific time limit.
According to Sargsyan, the timeline will depend on how quickly and effectively Armenia implements the required measures.
She noted that several actions have already been completed, while others are currently underway.
“We are committed to continuing and fully ensuring their implementation,” she said.
Sargsyan stressed that the quality of implementation is particularly important, as the programme is aimed at introducing new standards across various sectors in Armenia and improving the quality of life of citizens.
