EU NOT TO FINANCE PROGRAMS LEAVING ASIDE ARMENIA
Armenia which is included in the program `European Neighbors' will get 100
million Euros from the structure, particularly for finding alternative
sources of energy. Today head of the EU Foreign Relations Administration
Hugh Mingarelli announced about it. Although, as Mr. Mingarelli notes, `EU
has not yet confirmed the 2007-2013 budget'.
The EU representative told the journalists about it in the press conference
held today in Yerevan concluding the Armenia-EU Cooperation Committee 6th
session.
According to the Committee Armenian co-chair, Commerce and Economic
Development Minister Karen Chshmarityan, in the session the closing of the
Metsamor nuclear power station has not been mentioned. Moreover, the
European side did not exclude the creation of a new nuclear power station.
This is an almost revolutionary point in the RA-EU relations.
Hugh Mingarelli also claimed that the EU will not finance regional programs
leaving aside Armenia.
