    Sept 4 2013

    Lithuanian Foreign Minister Linas LinkeviÄ~Mius said "We respect any
    choice of the countries, but they cannot join two organisations at
    the same time due to differences in tariff issues"

    Armenia has blocked its chances of signing an agreement on establishing
    a free trade zone with the European Union, Lithuanian Foreign Minister
    Linas LinkeviÄ~Mius said in his interview to AFP, Armenian Mediamax
    reported.

    Lithuania took over the Presidency of the Council of European Union
    on July 1, 2013.

    The EU respects the decision on joining the Customs Union which was
    declared by the Armenian president in Moscow, but 'two systems are
    incompatible', the Lithuanian minister noted.

    "We respect any choice of the countries, but they cannot join two
    organisations at the same time due to differences in tariff issues,"
    Linas LinkeviÄ~Mius added.
