EU Mission arrives in Armenia
Baku/13.10.22/Turan: The technical group of the EU mission will arrive in Armenia on October 13, Deputy Foreign Minister of the Republic Paruyr Hovhannisyan told reporters on Thursday.
The technical group will discuss the criteria according to which an EU fact-finding mission should be deployed on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, Hovhannisyan said.
The decision to send a mission to the border of the two countries was made on October 6 at a four-party meeting in Prague. The Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan agreed to the work of the EU mission along the border with Azerbaijan. The President of Azerbaijan agreed to the work of the mission within two months.
The day before in Moscow, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told Armenian Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan that the CSTO was ready to send its mission to the region. The issue of the arrival of the mission depends on the consent of Yerevan.
Moscow does not hide its irritation with the desire of Yerevan to invite observers from Europe to the region. The day before, Ushchakov, an assistant to the President of Russia, openly accused the European Union of trying to "wedged" into the processes in the region and appropriating Russia's peacekeeping achievements. --02D---
