EU Troika delegation leaves Yerevan for Tbilisi October 2 and will try to deal with the situation between Russia and Georgia on the spot, Finnish FM Erkki Tuomioja stated at a news conference in Yerevan. In his words, the parties should try to avoid a new round of tension. "EU is ready to help Russia and Georgia to solve the conflict, but it is not enough. They should be ready to it themselves," the Finnish FM said.

A statement approving the Action Plan within the ENP is planned in Georgia. The EU started talks to implement the program simultaneously with the South Caucasus states in 2005.
