In 2012, significant progress was registered in negotiations of an
EU-Armenia Association Agreement, including a Deep and Comprehensive
Free Trade Area, according to a progress report released by the
European Commission as part of the 2013 ENP package, which takes
stock of the progress of EU-Armenia relations.
Armenia has been implementing sound macro-economic policies and
structural reforms, and made further progress over poverty reduction
and social cohesion, the report says. 2012 Parliamentary election
and February 2013 Presidential election was generally transparent and
there was a serious effort to address issues related to human rights
and fundamental freedoms. However, further work needs to be done,
especially in the implementation and enforcement of legislation.
Armenia addressed some of the key recommendations of the last
year's ENP progress report. Progress is needed also on other key
recommendations. (EU Neighbourhood Info)
