The foreign ministers of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia arrived in Luxemburg on October 26 to discuss their countries' ongoing economic and political cooperation with the European Union, the RIA news agency reported. The foreign minister troika and their European hosts will talk about further steps to be taken under the Eastern Partnership Programme, a campaign meant to bring the three South Caucasus states, as well as Ukraine, Belarus and Moldova, closer to the EU through freer trade and the harmonization of legal codes. The EU describes its Eastern Partnership Programme as part of a roadmap to Association Agreements and the eventual creation of a free trade zone that includes the bloc's 27 members and its six post-Soviet partners.
