Speaking of Armenia Accession to EU and NATO Baghdassaryan Meant «Long-Term Outlook»
Chair of the Armenian NA Artur Baghdassaryan during today's session of the Parliament said that speaking of prospects of Armenia's accession to the EU and NATO, he meant the long-term outlook. Noting that matters of EU and NATO accession are not a priority of Armenia's foreign policy today, Mr Baghdassaryan added he sees the future of Armenia in the large European family, which «does not run counter to the Armenian-Russian cooperation.» We remind that earlier A. Baghdassaryan stated in an interview with a German newspaper that he sees the future of Armenia in the EU and NATO, for which he war criticized by Armenian President Robert Kocharian.
