ArmInfo. The European Parliament called for a differential approach to
Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, the report adopted by a large majority
of votes in the European Parliament on January 16, reads.
As the European Parliament's press-service told ArmInfo, the report on
the South Caucasus was presented by Luxemburg parliamentarian Lydie
Polfer and urged the European Commission to carry out a feasibility
study to evaluate the possibility of concluding free trade agreements
with Georgia and Armenia. Moreover, the European Parliament called for
more cooperation in the Black Sea and South Caucasus regions and urged
the European Commission to come up with new "concrete proposals for
fostering regional cooperation" in this part of the EU's neighbourhood.
Referring to frozen conflicts in both regions, the MEPs noted that they
reject "all attempts by foreign powers aimed at creating exclusive
spheres of influence" and urged the states in the region to "stop the
increase in their military spending".
