The European Union’s Committee on Policy and Security welcomes Canada’s offer to contribute to the EU Monitoring Mission in Armenia, providing personnel and financial assistance. This significant move comes after Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed readiness to assist Armenia in the resolution of the situation in the South Caucasus.
Armenia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs warmly embraces Canada’s initiative to become a part of the EU Mission in Armenia, recognizing the role it plays in strengthening stability and peace in the region.
Canada’s involvement, marked by the recent opening of a full-fledged embassy in Yerevan and restrictions on exports for Turkish drones, showcases a growing interest in our region. With Canada’s inclusion, the mission could potentially evolve into an international body, expanding its jurisdiction and mandating the UN to address the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. While the probability is not high, Armenia’s Foreign Ministry remains committed to exploring these opportunities for regional security and cooperation.
