EU stands firmly with Armenia, says Estonian Foreign Minister

The EU stands firmly with Armenia as it counters “Russia’s destabilising influence”, Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna said after meeting his Armenian counterpart Ararat Mirzoyan during the Foreign Affairs Council (FAC).

“Always good catch-ups at FAC. I reassured my friend, Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan, that the EU stands firmly with Armenia as it counters Russia’s destabilising influence. We will continue supporting Armenia’s efforts to deepen trade links with its neighbours and [enable] discussions on enlargement and sanctions policy with Commissioner Marta Kos, Czech Foreign Minister Petr Macinka, Irish Minister Helen McEntee, Malta’s Chris Fearne, and Slovenian Foreign Minister Tone Kajzer,” Tsahkna said on X.
