    EU NOT TO FINANCE PROGRAMS LEAVING ASIDE ARMENIA

    Armenia which is included in the program `European Neighbors' will get 100
    million Euros from the structure, particularly for finding alternative
    sources of energy. Today head of the EU Foreign Relations Administration
    Hugh Mingarelli announced about it. Although, as Mr. Mingarelli notes, `EU
    has not yet confirmed the 2007-2013 budget'.

    The EU representative told the journalists about it in the press conference
    held today in Yerevan concluding the Armenia-EU Cooperation Committee 6th
    session.

    According to the Committee Armenian co-chair, Commerce and Economic
    Development Minister Karen Chshmarityan, in the session the closing of the
    Metsamor nuclear power station has not been mentioned. Moreover, the
    European side did not exclude the creation of a new nuclear power station.
    This is an almost revolutionary point in the RA-EU relations.

    Hugh Mingarelli also claimed that the EU will not finance regional programs
    leaving aside Armenia.
