YEREVAN. – Trying to split trade relations between the European and the Eurasian unions may be challenging, Ms Heidi Hautala, Co-Chair of the Euronest parliamentary assembly, told the media in Yerevan on Wednesday.

Members of the European parliament and their fellow MPs from the Eastern partnership countries (excluding Azerbaijan) convened in Yerevan to participate in the plenary session of the Euronest

She called attention to the study by the assembly, finalized for the plenary seat of the assembly, which states that any country should well understand that having foothold in both unions can be challenging in terms of keeping proper balance.

This modest remark on Armenia (a newcomer to the Eurasian Union, who maintains relations with the EU) was emboldened by another Co-Chair, Mr Boris Tarasyuk (Ukraine), who said that “one cannot be half pregnant”, stopping halfway.
