EU calls Russia ‘fundamental threat’ which increases tension in Armenia

The European Commission of the European Union (EU) has published its Joint White Paper for European Defence Readiness 2030, which defines the key directions for the development of the EU defense industry until 2030.

It notes, in particular, that “Russia will remain a fundamental threat to Europe’s security for the foreseeable future.”

The authors of this document stated that Moscow is using destabilizing tactics, cooperating with other authoritarian regimes.

“It [i.e. Russia] is persistently fuelling tensions and instability in Europe’s neighbourhood, whether it is in the Western Balkans, Georgia, Moldova or Armenia and has a growing destabilising influence in Africa,” they added.
