The EU will send a civilian mission to Armenia to help with border security

The European Union has decided to establish a civilian mission in Armenia. This mission will help Armenia manage its borders and improve its security.

This decision marks a new level of direct EU involvement in the South Caucasus region. It means the EU is taking a more active role in a region where Russia has traditionally been the dominant security actor. The mission will provide technical assistance and advice, which could slowly shift Armenia's security alignment.
