Armenia-EU new agreement may be signed soon: Tigran Sargsyan

The new agreement between Armenia and the European Union may be signed in near future, Tigran Sargsyan, Chairman of the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), said in Berlin.

“I think it will be signed in near future”, he said. “Armenia’s stance has always been that we must work both with the EU and the Eurasian Economic Union. We must not contradict these two vectors.”

Sargsyan said Armenia and EU had to re-start the work on the new agreement since the previous one was blocked by Brussels. “Unfortunately, in the final stage of talks the European partners adopted tougher stance so we re-launched the process,” he said.
