The success of the talks with Brussels and an effective dialogue
between Armenia and the EU much depends on reliability and ability
of the Armenian government, political expert Richard Giragossian said
at today's conference in Yerevan dedicated to this topic.
He said that once Armenia lost its chance when abandoning the
Association Agreement with the EU and deciding to join the Customs
Union. Now Yerevan has been given the second chance which must not
been lost, as it will not have the third one, Giragossian is sure.
'At the present conditions the Eastern Partnership Programme is gaining
special importance. So, we need to fill its agenda with a specific
content. The Riga summit of the Eastern Partnership, that will be
held in May, should not be similar to the Vilnius one. Besides the
active participation of civil society in the process for enhancing the
dialogue with the EU, I think that the serious approach of the Armenian
leadership is also very much important. They have to understand that
the decisions adopted today much determine the future of our children",
- Guragossian said.
