    EU PROMISES TO GIVE ARMENIA 'MORE FOR MORE'

    On Sept. 19, during his visit to Brussels, Armenian Prime Minister
    Tigran Sargsyan met with European Commissioner for Enlargement and
    European Neighborhood Policy Stefan Fule. According to an Armenian
    government statement, the parties discussed issues related to
    implementing joint programs and reforms in Armenia.

    After their meeting, Sargsyan and Fule held a joint press conference
    where the European official said that frequent contact between the
    parties (in this case, Armenia and the EU) is in line with expanding
    the reform agenda in Armenia.

    "I am happy to declare that the European Commission recently made a
    decision to begin talks on the readmission agreement and simplifying
    the visa regime with Armenia. The EU consulting group will continue to
    support the Armenian authorities to execute reforms in the important
    sector of the Association Agreement," said Fule.

    He further added that the more Armenia makes reforms, the more
    assistance it will receive from the EU - toward implementing those
    reforms.

    "The condition 'More for More' will work for all our neighbors. Those
    states that truly go down the road of thorough reforms can expect
    more from the European Union - including by way of finances. If
    Armenia maintains current trends, it will be well positioned to be
    one of the candidates for the highest position to take advantage of
    the principle of 'more for more'," he said.
