YEREVAN. – Armenian parliamentary delegation must form a new agenda for discussions with EU lawmakers, ARF Dashnaktsutyun member Aghvan Vardanyan said during a press conference in Yerevan.

He commented on the results of the meeting of EU-Armenia Parliamentary Cooperation Committee that took place in Strasbourg on February 5-6.

“We want to form a new agenda that would not conflict with our new relationship with the EU. Do not forget in the past we had a resolution of the European Parliament which contained not pro-Armenian wordings on Karabakh,” Vardanyan noted. Besides, EU and Armenia have not signed the joint statement.

“Of course, we all understand that the reasons could be different. But we must remember that it is for the first time when Armenia did not sign a statement with EU in parliamentary format. And this happened after Armenia expressed a desire to join the Customs Union,” Vardanyan explained.

In regard, it is necessary to inform European partners about the essence of Armenia’s cooperation with the Customs Union not to lose friends among European parliamentarians.
