Yerevan and Sofia Activate Euro Integration Cooperation
Armenia and Bulgaria intend to activate cooperation within the EU framework, stated Armenian Parliament Speaker Artur Baghdassaryan during a joint news conference with Bulgarian People's Assembly Georgi Pirinski. "Beginning in January 2007 Bulgaria will become EU full member and political dialogue with that country and its experience of EU integration are important to Armenia within that context," the Armenian Speaker said. In his words, interaction like that provides for cooperation between the two countries in international and European organizations. In his turn Georgi Pirinski expressed readiness to strengthen cooperation with Armenia's representatives.
