    Armenian leader, EU envoy discuss ties, Karabakh


    [Presenter-read report over video of the meeting] President [Serzh]
    Sargsyan will go on an official visit to Brussels in the future. The
    forthcoming visit, according to EU Special Representative for the
    South Caucasus Peter Semneby, will provide an opportunity to assess
    Armenia's relations with the European Union and outline the general
    agenda of cooperation.

    President Sargsyan told the European diplomat that our country
    attaches importance to expanding relations with the European Union and
    expects the European Union's support and assistance on this
    path. Speaking about the settlement of the Karabakh issue, Serzh
    Sargsyan said that the Armenian side, taking the Madrid principles as
    a basis, recognizes the OSCE Minsk Group as a format, and the co-chair
    countries of the OSCE Minsk Group as the mediators.

    Speaking about regional developments, Semneby talked of the European
    Union's preparedness to provide every support to the process of
    normalization of Armenian-Turkish relations. He also highly evaluated
    the establishment of the fact-finding group for the 1 March events
    [post-election disturbances] and inclusion of both parliamentary
    opposition and opposition not represented in the parliament in the
    work of the group.

    Semneby today also met Parliament Speaker Hovik Abrahamyan, Secretary
    of the National Security Council Artur Baghdasaryan and
    Prosecutor-General Aghvan Hovsepyan.
