"One of the EU’s concerns has always been the European Neighbourhood Policy. Political and social stability have been strategic priorities of the EU since its creation, so it has established cooperation agreements with neighbouring countries. This report, by Mr Poręba, includes recommendations by the European Parliament, the Council, the Commission and the European External Action Service on the negotiations for the EU-Armenia association agreement. Throughout the negotiation process, Armenia has demonstrated a level of openness to and interest in moving closer to EU values. However, much remains to be done, particularly with regard to combating organised crime, corruption and human rights violations, as well as to the armed conflict in the Nagorno-Karabakh region, where Armenia still has troops. It is becoming essential that both countries – Armenia and Azerbaijan – urgently adopt the Minsk Group initiatives. I voted for this report and would urge the Armenian authorities to continue with reforms, particularly as regards human rights and freedom of expression, promoting fair and free elections in May."@en1
