Europe to seek green light for ASEAN-EU airline agreement

The EC laid out an aviation strategy in December 2015, aimed at forming a series of agreements between the EU and other countries and regional groups. These include Turkey, China, the Gulf Cooperation Council states and ASEAN.

On June 7, the EC will ask the European Council – comprising leaders of the EU states and other EU bodies – to approve the strategy.

This will allow the EC to start negotiations with ASEAN and other potential partners, Jakub Adamowicz, spokesperson for Transport and Regional Policy at the European Commission, told The Myanmar Times. (Courtesy of mmtimes.com)
