Supporting democratic resilience in Armenia (debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. Armenia is of fundamental importance to Europe. On the one hand, it is a state of the South Caucasus, on which the security of Europe, the security of the region depends, but on the other, Armenia is above all a state that, despite the pressure of Putin, Moscow, Russia, enormous geopolitical pressure, has chosen the path of democracy, the path of reforms, the path of approaching the European Union, that is, the path of values. If Armenia has chosen the path of values, it requires courage, and courage must be supported, appreciated and strengthened. The parliamentary elections will be a test for Armenia, because they must also take place in conditions of values. They must be honest, free, so that it is the Armenians themselves who decide on their way. And we must guarantee that the future of Armenia will not be written in Moscow by GRU agents, but the future of Armenia will be decided in their hearts by Armenian citizens, Armenians. Armenia, we are with you.
