/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Three months before Germany's presidency in
the European Union Chancellor Angela Merkel outlined the principal
directions to be taken up. These are deepening of cooperation within
the EU, European Constitution adoption process, intense discussion of
European values, EU engagement in the energy sector and scientific
research and participation in globalization process. To remind,
Germany will preside in the EU January-June 2007.
When touching upon the inner European policy she spoke for
strengthening of cooperation between the EU member states instead of
accepting new members. According to her, these two processes cannot
proceed simultaneously. That is why Europe should determine that it
will not promise EU membership in the near future. At that she remarked
that her statement may seem tough to some states. European Commission
President Jose Manuel Barroso said that after the accession of Bulgaria
and Romania in 2007 the EU will not enlarge until completion of the
European structures' reform, reported Deutsche Welle.
