YEREVAN, April 6 (Itar-Tass) – Cooperation with the European Union
remains one of the priorities of Armenia’s foreign policy, Foreign
Minister Edvard Nalbandian said on Tuesday.
"The EU remains a reliable political and economic partner for Armenia,"
he told a joint new conference with EU Commissioner for Enlargement
and European Neighbourhood Policy Stefan Fule.
He stressed that at present, the Armenian-EU relations register a
growing trend.
"The cooperation was brought to a qualitatively new level after the
EU Eastern Partnership policy was launched," the diplomats aid.
"In this respect the Armenian side attaches special importance to
signing a free trade agreement with the EU, to simplifying the visa
rules for Armenian citizens and to beginning the talks on an associate
agreement with the EU," he said.
