    The Foreign Minister of Armenia, Edward Nalbandian, received the
    EU delegation headed by the Foreign Minister of Spain, Muguel Angel
    Moratinos.

    Greeting the guests, Edward Nalbandian congratulated Muguel Angel
    Moratinos on assuming EU chairmanship.

    Charactering the Armenia-EU relations, Minister Nalbandian stated:
    "The Armenia-EU relations are at a crucial stage today. The European
    Union is a reliable political and economic partner for Armenia. The
    Eastern Partnership Program that kicked off last year opens broad
    opportunities for expansion of cooperation in a number of spheres."

    Minister Nalbandian attached importance to the further deepening
    of the political dialogue between Armenia and the European Union,
    the signing of a free trade agreement, the easing of visa regime and
    the start of negotiations on an association agreement.

    Minister Nalbandian and Moratnos talked about issues related to the
    expansion of cooperation between Armenia and Spain. The Armenian
    Foreign Minister informed that a decision had been taken to open an
    Embassy of the Republic of Armenia in Madrid in 2010.

    Minister Moratinor reiterated the EU support for the Armenian-Turkish
    process and voiced hope that the parties would ratify the protocols
    without preconditions and within a reasonable timeframe and would
    move forward.

    The Armenian Foreign Minister informed his Spanish counterpart about
    the latest developments in the negotiations on the Karabakh conflict
    settlement.
