Armenia rejects EU proposal
Armenia has rejected an EU proposal to hold a presidential meeting of the South Caucasus countries in Warsaw within the Eastern Partnership summit.
"High Representative of the EU for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Catherine Ashton made a proposal to meet with the presidents of the three South Caucasus countries and jointly discuss regional issues," the Azerbaijani Embassy in Belgium said on Monday.
"Despite Ashton's proposal, the meeting was not organized because Armenia, constantly urging the EU to promote regional cooperation in South Caucasus, refused to attend."
The second summit of the Eastern Partnership was held in Warsaw on September 29-30. A joint declaration was adopted at the summit. The participants stressed the importance of the Eastern Partnership to promote stability.
