It is also evident from the public information that Armenia and the EU are reviewing the relations recently and these days, and are revising the agenda covering these relations in a positive sense. RA Minister of Foreign Affairs Ararat Mirzoyan said this during the NA-Government question-and-answer session, answering the question of Meri Galstyan, deputy of the "Civil Contract" faction, about the directions of revisions of the Comprehensive and Extended Partnership Agreement signed between Armenia and the European Union, and at what stage of implementation. We have a foundational document, the SEPA, and the SEPA already predetermines specific actions or directions, but when I say that a review is taking place, I mean: issues are now being discussed and processes will take place that go beyond what SEPA provides. There are a number of such tools; the start of the visa liberalization dialogue, which if we have with the EU, is planned by the SEPA or other instruments. We have the political will on both sides to deepen our relations. The fields are diverse and are also reflected in the same press release of April 5, from aviation to economic diversifications, to approximation of markets, raising of qualities, standards - political, economic," said Ararat Mirzoyan, explaining that purely technically we do not have a new contract and we do not conclude, and therefore the actions resulting from the agreement will not change, but the agreement does not limit us to have other additional joint actions, joint programs: "In other words, we will continue the SEPA in the direction of full implementation [enforcement.- ed.] and parallel import "There are also other elements on the agenda of our bilateral relations, which are no less important," he said.
We will continue SEPA in the direction of full implementation and introduce other elements as well. Mirzoyan
