Hovik Abrahamyan has noted that the European Union has been and remains

important partners of Armenia, and within the framework of the Eastern
Partnership the European rapprochement is one of the priorities of
our foreign policy. Hovik Abrahamyan has stressed that Armenia will
continue the process of deepening of democratic reforms. "We are
ready to more deepen and expand our cooperation with the European

Parliament to Armenia.
Thanking for the meeting and the invitation the Vice President of the
European Parliament Jacek Protasiewicz highlighted the development
of the European-Union-Armenia relations and expressed hope that
the decision of Armenia to join the Customs Union will not impede
Armenia-European Union further cooperation.
