digression to the times of establishment of the European Union,
Mr. Oskanian its founders dreamt of peace and prosperity when both
seemed impossible.
Today both are guaranteed realities for Europeans, who have started
binding bridges between human beings, which surpass the old frontier
lines and take a new institutional shape, which is this Union. The
provisions of the Action Plans on the conflicts of the region include
one common view of resolution.

provides various opportunities for economic integration. Soon we
