We are bringing Armenia closer to the EU, while working on a peaceful and prosperous South Caucasus. Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission of the European Union (EU), noted this on X, after her meeting with Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan,  in New York.

“We are building roads and bridges with our €200 million connectivity package.

And bridges between people, with our peace-fostering investments.

Our Autonomous Trade Measures will open new opportunities.

With 80% of Armenia's exports to the EU market now tariff free.

We expect the final adoption of these measures by EU legislators tomorrow - in record time!

And finally we are strengthening energy security.

So: the EU-Armenia partnership is moving fast, forward and stronger than ever,” added the president of the European Commission.
