Armenia Praises EU Decision to Extend Border Monitoring Mission for Two More Years
Armenia has welcomed the European Union's decision to extend the EU Mission in Armenia (EUMA) mandate for another two years, Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan announced in a post on X.
“The Mission has proven to be one of the pillars of stability in the region. We appreciate the support of each and every EU Member State and their participation on the ground,” Mirzoyan stated.
The Council of the European Union formally adopted the decision, extending EUMA's mandate until February 19, 2027, with a budget allocation of over €44 million from February 20, 2025, to February 19, 2027.
First deployed in 2023, the EU observer mission monitors and reports on the security situation along Armenia’s borders, aiming to enhance stability, improve civilian safety in conflict-affected areas, and foster trust in the region.
