What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

The Council of the European Union endorsed the European Commission’s proposal for trade liberalization between the EU and Armenia. This legislation, which aims to liberalize about 80% of Armenia’s exports to the European Union for a two-year period, is now moving to the European Parliament for a vote. Only the signatures of the presidents of the two institutions and publication in the Official Journal of the EU remain before the regulation enters into force.
