Head of the EU Delegation to Armenia, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Piotr Switalski held a press conference on the EU-Armenia Cooperation Agreement known as CEPA
YEREVAN—The head of the European Union’s delegation to Armenia—the EU Ambassador—Piotr Switalski held a press conference Monday at the Media Center to highlight the key points of the landmark agreement signed on Friday between the EU and Armenia.
He was quick to clarify that the agreement was not directed at any third party, but rather was a means for Armenia and EU to benefit from its provisions, adding CEPA would also be beneficial to Armenia’s other partners.
“The European Union is not pursuing any selfish goals. By negotiating this agreement we didn’t think of us alone. Therefore, if this agreement is applied well, if it brings the desired changes in terms of governance, institutions, economy, competition, business, trade, energy, transport, people-to-people contacts, we do not intend to monopolize the benefits,â€
