"ЕС намерен инвестировать в образование и инновации в Армении"

Европейский Союз планирует инвестировать в образование и инновационный сектор Армении после подписания нового расширенного соглашения о партнерстве. Об этом заявил комиссар ЕС по вопросам расширения и политики соседства Йоханнес Хан во время визита в Ереван в понедельник (2 октября). Хан сказал, что развитие навыков станет ключом к будущему развитию Армении.

Выступая в Ереване на брифинге вместе с министром иностранных дел Эдуардом Налбандяном, комиссар Хан заявил, что в интересах Европейского союза "иметь сильную, стабильную и процветающую Армению на Южном Кавказе, способствующую дальнейшей стабилизации нашего соседства".

По словам Хана, Армения и ЕС "скоро" подпишут новое всеобъемлющее и расширенное соглашение о партнерстве. "Это новаторское новое соглашение поможет продемонстрировать, что Армения может быть частью процессов Евразийской интеграции, одновременно устанавливая расширенные и всеобъемлющие отношения с Союзом". По словам Хана, это будет первое соглашение такого рода между ЕС и страной восточного региона. "Нам интересно посмотреть, как новое соглашение будет реализовано", - добавил он.

В Ереване Хан встретился с президентом Сержем Саргсяном, премьер-министром Карапетяном и министром иностранных дел Налбандяном.

Azerbaijani members of thematic groups for dialogue with Armenians briefed, as work on five final reports continues in earnest

On Friday, (26 September) there was another amazing event in the process of Armenia-Azerbaijan dialogue, this time in Baku. Around twenty five Azerbaijanis involved in five thematic groups established by LINKS Europe earlier this year were briefed by Murad Muradov, co-Chair of the thematic group on Peace and Security; Liman Namazova, Chair of the thematic group on Environment; Lala Jumayeva, Chair of the thematic group on gender and diversity; Nigar Gurbanli, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on regional connectivity; and Ramazan Samadov, Deputy Chair of the thematic group on Governance, on the work done so-far. Murad Muradov spoke about his visit to Yerevan earlier in the week, and his speech to Armenian thematic group members. He said the momentum for peace, dialogue and regional co-operation was stronger than ever before. Ambassadors and other representatives of EU member states and others, as well as representatives of the EU Delegation, the EUSR office and other international institutions were in attendance. In a short speech to the gathering, LINKS Europe Director, Dr Dennis Sammut, said that enemies of peace remained active in both Armenia and Azerbaijan. Many had been warmongers for years, and it was difficult for them to change. However it was important to engage them, and have an open and honest discussion with them. The Azerbaijani members of the thematic groups are eager to meet their Armenian counterparts in person in Tbilisi 27-28 October, when they hope to finish the work on the five reports.
