Further information:

The Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement (CEPA) between the European Union and the Republic of Armenia aims to enhance political and economic partnership and cooperation, based on common values and close links, including by increasing the participation of Armenia in policies, programmes and agencies of the EU. It creates a strong enabling framework for enhanced political dialogue on all areas of mutual interest, promoting the development of close political relations between the EU and Armenia.

The Partnership Council is to adopt a decision on its own rules of procedure and those of the Partnership Committee, as well as on the establishment of sub-committees and other bodies.
