Aravot: Internal developments in Europe ‘may hamper ratification of CEPA’
A deputy leader of the former ruling Republican Party (RPA) has expressed concerns over possible delays in the ratification of the EU-Armenia agreement.
Armen Ashotyan, who is in Brussels these days to participate in the European People’s Party’s (EPP) summit, told his European colleagues at the interstate event that Armenia expects the ratification procedures to be completed until June 2019.
In comments to the paper, however, he said that they now have serious fears that the expected political developments in Europe may affect the process of ratifying and enacting the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement (CEPA). “Our concerns deal with the internal political developments in Europe, as they may slow down the agreement’s ratification by the national parliaments and the Council of Europe, not allowing the enforcement of the legal regime, especially with respect to politically important matters for Armenia,” he told the paper on Tuesday.
Ashotyan said they want to accelerate the ratification especially in the light of the 2019 elections to the European Parliament. Highlighting a high likelihood of unpredictable outcomes, the politician said they are afraid that a possible increase in Eurosceptics’ number may complicate their efforts.
