Глава делегации ЕС:

Увязывать предстоящие выборы в Армении с переговорами ЕС есть спекуляция. Об этом на брифинге, посвященном старту переговоров между Арменией и ЕС об облегчении визового  режима и реадмиссии, заявил руководитель делегации Еврокомиссии в Армении, посол Траян Христеа.

Посол напомнил, что ЕС всегда заявлял о необходимости проведения предстоящих выборов на высоком уровне в плане дальнейшего развития отношений с ЕС. “Но увязывать эти два понятия – это носит спекулятивный характер. Обе стороны заинтересованы  в успешном продолжении переговоров», - подчеркнул посол.

В свою очередь, замминистра иностранных дел Армении Зограб Мнацаканян подчеркнул, что отношения Армении с ЕС стоятся на общечеловеческих ценностях, и главная цель заключается  в построении демократического государства, а выборы – вехи на этом пути. Он также выразил мнение, что отношения с ЕС будут и далее успешно развиваться.
