    YEREVAN, JUNE 28, ARMENPRESS: The discussion of the talks over the
    Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) with the European
    Union will continue in the first week of October, Deputy Minister
    of Economy and DCFTA Chief Negotiator Garegin Melkonyan told a news
    conference held in the press hall of "Armenpress" June 28.

    "The goal of the first stage of the negotiations held in Brussels June
    19-20 was to make it clear for the Armenian side the expectations of
    the European Union from different spheres, and to show to EU Armenia's
    readiness to continue the process, said the Chief Negotiator, assuring
    that the negotiations will take no longer than 2 years.

    According to him, the actual substantial agreements will be reached
    in October. In foreseeable future EU will make up the 15 chapters of
    the texts in accordance with the agreement, which will be presented to
    Armenia in late July. They, too, will be discussed during the October
    meeting. Before that, the texts presented by the European Union will
    be discussed with Armenia's government, businessmen, NGOs.

    Among the preconditions for Armenia to start the DCFTA negotiations
    is performance of the main priorities in the spheres of technical
    obstacles of trade, sanitarian and phytosanitary measures, intellectual
    property rights and general coordination.
