Official Brussels again warns Armenia of impossibility of
combining participation in Russia's Customs Union and the EU Deep
of Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement, Deputy Head of the European
Parliament Committee on Foreign Affairs Elmar Brok said in an exclusive
interview with Radio Liberty Armenia.
He said that these two agreements contradict each other. EU cannot
sign a DCFTA with a country that is a member of Russia's Customs
Union. It is impossible legally. Armenia and other Eastern Partnership
member-countries must chose between the two structures, he said.
Asked what if Armenia decides to join the Customs Union initiated by
Russia, Elmar Brok said that EU's relations with it will be the same
as with Russia.
