YEREVAN, May 20. /ARKA/. Negotiations between Armenia and European
Union over facilitation of entry visas may be launched this year,
Armenian Deputy Foreign Minister Karine Ghazinyan said Thursday in
the National Assembly during the presentation of the 2010 government
budget performance.
Simplification of visa regime between Armenia and European Union is
one of the most important components of the Association Agreement.
"The European Union also links the facilitation of the procedure
of provision of entry visas with the safe environment concept
that implies border management, enhancement of security of travel
documents, effective management of financial flows and other measures,"
Ghazinyan said.
Negotiations over the Armenia-EU Association Agreement were launched
on June 19, 2010 in Yerevan.
The future agreement will replace the present agreement on partnership
and cooperation.
The aim of the agreement is to deepen relations between Armenia and
the European Union in various areas, such as foreign policy, democracy,
economic integration, movement of people and energy.
