EU believes the development of Ombudsman institution in Armenia to
be of primary importance, according to the head of delegation of the
European Commission in Armenia.
"We're glad to have helped the Human Rights Defender Office in the
framework of EU Twinning Program," Ambassador Raul de Luzenberger
stated during the event to mark the Program completion.
As the Ambassador noted, the cooperation between the sides will
continue.
Since 1998, the European Commission has financed Twinning projects
for institution building in EU acceding or candidate countries as
well as in other EU neighbour countries. The aim is to strengthen the
Beneficiary Countries' capacity to implement EU rules and regulations
at the national level - or to assist them in approaching Western
standards in general.
