Армения и ЕС согласовали приоритеты

Европейский Союз и Армения подписали документ, в котором перечислены общие приоритеты политики на ближайшие годы в соответствии с новым Соглашением ЕС и Армении о всеобъемлющем и расширенном партнерстве.

В документе подчеркиваются четыре основные области сотрудничества, а именно: укрепление институтов и благое управление; Экономическое развитие и рыночные возможности; Связность, энергоэффективность, окружающая среда и климат; Мобильность и контакты между людьми.

Эти Приоритеты Партнерства станут определяющими направлениями финансовой помощи ЕС Армении до 2020 года. На этот период ЕС выделил Армении около 160 млн. евро, в частности в образование и инновации, которые являются ключевыми для экономического развития Армении.

Документ был подписан в Брюсселе Верховным представителем ЕС Федерикой Моргерини и министром иностранных дел Армении Эдвардом Налбандяном.

"Европейский Союз и Армения с Приоритетами Партнерства еще больше укрепляют нашу и без того прочную дружбу и сотрудничество", - сказала Верховный представитель ЕС Федерика Могерини. "В сочетании с нашим новым Соглашением о всеобъемлющем и расширенном партнерстве, которое мы подписали всего три месяца назад на саммите Восточного партнерства в Брюсселе, мы укрепляем наше совместное обязательство добиваться положительных результатов в областях, которые действительно влияют на жизнь людей, как в ЕС, так и в Армении. Мы продолжаем взаимодействовать и работать над тем, чтобы воплотить эти обязательства в жизнь".

Dozens participate in new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue process as societies prepare for the signing of historic peace agreement

The governments of Armenia and Azerbaijan have recently agreed the text of a historic peace agreement that ends years of animosity and warfare. The agreement is expected to be signed soon. LINKS Europe, which has a long history of engagement with the process of peace in the region, recently launched a new Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue format in the framework of the European Union's EU4Peace initiative. In the last two weeks dozens of Armenians and Azerbaijanis, including academics, students, civil society activists, journalists and other professionals, many of them young, were involved. The work is organised in five thematic groups focusing on peace and security, connectivity, environment, governance and gender and equality and in phase 2 of the project, which has just ended, around fifty participants took part in in-person and online meetings, and more than twenty others were involved indirectly. The Chairpersons of the five thematic groups met in Vilnius, 3-6 July to launch the third phase of the program. The five thematic groups are now working on separate reports, which are expected to be finished in November and presented to the two governments and other stakeholders. The reports will outline a vision, up to 2040.
