The European Union has officially begun negotiating with Armenia on a far-reaching free trade agreement that will significantly deepen the South Caucasus country's ties with the 27-nation bloc.
The first round of negotiations between officials from the Armenian government and the EU's executive body, the European Commission, on the Deep and Comprehensive free Trade Area (DCFTA) ended in Brussels late on Wednesday.
Armenia's trade representative to the EU, Varos Simonian, told RFE/RL's Armenian service (Azatutyun.am) that the two sides agreed to set up 14 working groups that will focus on concrete "chapters" of a future agreement on the creation of the DCFTA. The agreement will contain 15 such chapters, he said.
