“Excellency

We would like to congratulate you on your political alliance’s victory in Armenia’s parliamentary elections of 9 December 2018. The elections were held with respect for fundamental freedoms and enjoyed broad public trust. You received a strong mandate for reforms from the citizens of Armenia.
The European Union stands ready to support you in your reform agenda. The EU-Armenia Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement, provisionally applied since 1 June 2018, provides a solid framework for our cooperation and an ambitious blueprint for reforms.

It will also support a resilient economic and social system conducive to building Armenia’s prosperity. We look forward to working together to implement the Agreement to the benefit of all Armenian citizens.
At the broader, regional level, we count on Armenia’s continued engagement within the Eastern Partnership, which will mark its tenth anniversary in 2019. We also count on your renewed efforts to promote regional peace and security.

We wish you every success in leading your country.
Yours sincerely,
[signed]
For the European Council Donald TUSK
For the European Commission Jean-Claude JUNCKER”.
