    Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister, Armenia's chief negotiation in the
    Armenia-EU Association Agreement talks Zohrab Mnatsakanyan participated
    in the meeting of Eastern Neighborhood Policy senior officials. The
    meeting discussed the developments and perspectives of cooperation
    between the European Union and the partner countries and determined
    the steps to be taken before the Vilnius summit in 2013.

    In his opening remarks, EU Commissioner for Enlargement and
    Neighborhood Policy Stefan Fule referred to the renewed Eastern
    Neighborhood Policy, which stresses the importance of steps the
    partner states should take towards reinforcement of democracy,
    protection of human rights and rule of law. He said it is based on
    the principle of differentiation and "more for more", which means a
    stronger partnership with the EU for those countries that make more
    progress toward democratic and socio-economic reform. The Commissioner
    noted also that President of the European Commission was impressed
    by his recent visit to Armenia.

    Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Zohrab Mnatsakanyan attached
    importance to the role of the Eastern Partnership in the development
    of Armenia-EU relations and stressed that "Armenia-EU relations are
    based on a common value system."

    The Deputy FM confirmed the willingness of Armenia to complete the
    negotiations on the Association Agreement, including the Deep and
    Comprehensive Free Trade Area, before the Eastern partnership summit
    in Vilnius in 2013.

    Issues of regional security and stability were also touched upon at
    the meeting.
