Successful implementation of the EU-Armenia Readmission Agreement is
"key to moving towards further enhancement of mobility," Commissioner
for Enlargement and European Neighbourhood Policy Stefan Fule told
Armenia's Foreign Affairs Minister Edward Nalbandian after the
signature ceremony of the Agreement last Friday in Brussels.
The Commissioner welcomed the improved conduct during the presidential
elections in February, as reported by OSCE/ODIHR Election Observation
Mission, but underlined the need to implement its remaining
recommendations, including in view of the forthcoming elections to
the Yerevan City Council on 5 May.
Fule and Nalbandian also discussed the state of play of the Association
Agreement negotiations, noting substantial progress since the beginning
of the year. On Nagorno-Karabakh, they stressed the need for restraint
on both sides.
Finally the Commissioner called for a thorough preparation "through
an inclusive process" by the Armenian side of the donors' conference
later this year, which is "meant to help Armenia implement its reform
priorities to the benefit of Armenian citizens." (EU Neighbourhood
