RUSTAMIAN: ARMENIA RAISED ITS RELATIONS WITH EU TO NEW LEVELS
A proper implementation of the Neighbourhood Policy Action Plan will further the political dialogue between Armenian and the European Union, Armen Rustamian, the National Assembly's Foreign Relations Committee chairman and ARF Armenian Supreme Body representative told a news conference today.
He said that the EU-Armenia parliamentary commission met on January 29-30 in Brussels. Peter Semneby, European Commission's envoy to the South Caucasus, attended the meeting, which adopted a joint statement condemning the killing of Turkish Armenian journalist Hrant Dink.
Rustamian said that Armenia's inclusion in the European Neighbourhood Policy is a great achievement, and the recent actions plan has raised the EU-Armenia relations to a new level. He also said that the EU has adopted a policy to help the OSCE Minsk Group to find an acceptable settlement of the Karabakh conflict. He also said that it is important the EU thinks any fair settlement should include the right to self-determination and minorities rights.
The commission has also urged Turkey to establish diplomatic relations with Armenia without preconditions and open the land border as well as the Kars-Gyumri railway. The commission also has welcomed Armenia's European tendency, reminding that free and fair elections would be a crucial step towards Armenia's inclusion in the Neighbourhood policy.
