The Armenian delegation led by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan is
participating in the sitting of the European People's Party Group
Bureau that kicked off in the Czech city of Karlovy Vary on May 6.
The topics for the meeting include the challenges and perspectives of
the Eastern Partnership, the Europe 2020 Strategy and the creation
of jobs and the fight against organised crime, money laundering and
gambling on a European level.
Along with prominent members of the EPP Group, several high-level
European and Czech politicians and well-known experts participate in
the event.
Joseph Daul MEP, Chairman of the EPP Group, welcomed Tigran Sargsyan,
Prime Minister of Armenia, and Aleksander Milinkievich, 2006 Sakharov
Prize Laureate and Leader of the Belarus Opposition. Mr. Daul noted
that "the EPP Group supports a partnership with the Eastern countries
and believes that such a partnership is based not only on business
contacts but on cooperation in the areas of freedom, democracy,
strengthening of the rule of law and cooperation in education or
culture policy."
The President of the European Parliament, Jerzy Buzek MEP, will
take part in these discussions. Even in these times of global
economic crisis, it is of paramount importance to maintain supportive
relationships with anybody who shares the same values of human rights,
rule of law and democracy upon which the EU is based."
Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan and President of the
Christian-Democratic party of the Czech Republic, Cyril Svoboda,
are expected to deliver speeches at the event.
