KOCHARIAN'S VISIT TO EUROPE COINCIDED WITH ADOPTION OF RES. 106

The adoption of Resolution 106 on the Armenian Genocide at the House
Commission on Foreign Relations fairly coincided with the visit of
RA President Robert Kocharian to Europe, where he had meetings with
head of Eurocommission Manuel Baroso, Commissioner on Justice Franco
Fratini, Commissioner on Foreign Relations Benita Ferero-Waldner,
head of the Senate of Belgium Herman Van Rompa, head of EU Council
Xavier Solana and head of Europarliament Hans Pottering. Both the
integration with Europe and the international recognition of the
Armenian Genocide are crucial for Armenia's foreign policy, and it
is very symbolic that positive shifts in both the directions occurred
in the same time period - last week.
The process of Armenia's integration with Europe already reach the
point whence it cannot be turned backwards, and that was proved by
the Armenian President's meeting with the highest officials of the
European structures. The next step of our success is the adoption of
the Resolution 106 by the House of Representatives and the consequent
reaction of other states.
