YEREVAN. – Eastern Partnership program remains one of the key instruments of the European Union in relations with its eastern neighbors, EU Ambassador to Armenia Traian Hristea said asked about the Armenian News-NEWS.am correspondent about future of the program.

Ambassador expressed hope that initial pessimism voiced by some analytic centers or experts will appear to be groundless.

“The fact that the level of assistance to Armenia for 2014-2017 remained unchanged is a proof that we will stay committed to our obligations and our work implemented within Eastern Partnership program,” he added.
