Armenia's parliament votes in first reading to launch EU accession bid

Armenia's parliament on Wednesday approved the first reading of a bill launching the country's bid to join the European Union as the ex-Soviet state moves away from its historical ally Russia.

"Expressing the will of the people of Armenia, having set the task to make Armenia a safe, secure, developed country, Armenia announces the start of the EU accession process," the bill read. It was approved by 63 votes for, while seven deputies voted against.
