At this point, the Armenia-EU agreement was ratified by ten EU member states, and it is expected that this list will be enlarged soon, head  of the Armenian mission to the European Union Tatul Margarian said in an interview with Armenpress agency.

According to him, this is a long process, for example, it took two years to ratify the agreement in case of Georgia, and this is considered to be a record short period, and in the case of Ukraine, it took three years.

“The priority is, of course, the implementation of the Agreement, in terms of which the start of its temporary application from June 1, 2018 was extremely important. Consequently, there is already a wide field for the implementation of its provisions,” he said.

Essential is the road map for the application of the agreement. This is a fundamental document that forms specific tasks and points to the departments and divisions responsible for their implementation, establishes reasonable deadlines, indicates financial sources for the implementation of the agreement.

According to him, a commission created by the Armenian Prime Minister’s decision of July 2, 2018 that coordinates the implementation of the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement Armenia- EU plays a great role.

The document “Priorities of Armenia-EU partnership” signed last year is also of great importance for the vision of Armenia-EU cooperation. Armenia is the first state among the countries of the Eastern Partnership, to finalize this document.
