EU Monitoring Mission to Armenia Opens New Headquarters in Yeghegnadzor
On November 1, the EU Monitoring Mission to Armenia (EUMA) opened its new headquarters in Yeghegnadzor, reporting that the number of EUMA patrols along the Armenian-Azerbaijani border since its deployment in February this year now reached 1,000. The number of observers will remain the same - 100 people.
Stressing that the region deserves lasting peace and stability, Markus Ritter, the head of the mission, expressed hope that the European mission will be able to contribute to achieving this goal.
"The issue of expanding EUMA will be discussed in Brussels until the end of the year," Ritter noted, informing the journalists that there is currently no high tension on the border of the two South Caucasus republics.
