EU is not a unitary state, it's also not a state and its bodies make differing, clashing decisions all the time. Government itself is also very happy with this decompartmentalized relationship. Business is business and rest is just noise for the government.

Depends on the percentage of revenue.
Syria needs investment and isn't really credit worthy yet and needs money

“Armenia's PM Nikol Pashinyan says he won't respond to Israel's recent decision on the 1915 events, citing the "weaponization of the Armenian Genocide:"

We believe that not entering into the issue of the weaponization of the Armenian Genocide is in the interests of the Republic of Armenia.”

Therefore, we do not see any need for a response.

New wars for new lands doctrine turned out to be a colossal failure for them. If you think about it their reward for their failed war will be economic prosperity and and political stability. No longer will Armenia remain a backward and poor state cut off from the world. Only other people that i can think of that wins political and economically from losing wars they instigate is the greeks.

Pashinyan may be the greatest Armenian leader the country had in modern times.
I'm starting to like him.

My worry is that some other non-regional countries will not like this new Armenia.
Let’s wait and see.

Pashinyan has to caution himself not to be to friendly towards us or a hardliner will replace him

yeah he needs to slow it down. You can't fix a hundred years of indoctrination overnight.

I would support economic cooperation even support between Turkey and armenia even if there are still some hostilities coming from them simply to fu** the Russians same with georgia even some military support if possible. Also erdo needs to be on his best behaviour no needles threats to anyone especially against israel with the current limited fallout between them and EU

I agree!

Remember, a month ago (or two months ago, I forgot) Macron visited Armenia and tried to stage a shitty show by passing to Turkey from Armenia? Turkey rejected it. I was so glad to see that because it not only gave France a message that they’re not welcome around these parts but also Turkey will support Armenian rapprochement and support the process.

When you don’t short circuit and taken over by your temper, you don’t play into other’s hand. Hope they continue to keep their calm and this process moves further.

A friendly and neighborly Armenia is advantageous to everyone, foremost to Armenia itself.

Don’t get your hopes up too much – Armenia is playing along because it needs the central corridor, just like the rest of us; we’re talking here about the Silk Road, which runs through Azerbaijan → Georgia and maybe Armenia → Turkey → Europe. I tend to believe that several players, such as Turkey, China and Europe, have made it clear to Armenia that this corridor is too important for everyone for them to be willing to accept instability and escalation at this stage. Armenia remains anti-Turkish – if it were to allow itself to be exploited by Israel in this situation, the country would only find itself economically sidelined if it were to be drawn into a political escalation. Israel gambled on this for free– it came at no political cost to the Country, but it didn’t work... nothing more.

Great point after 22:00 mark. Vance did mention a certification process already being underway regarding legality of transferring F-35s to Turkey(S400). And a sale notice was made to the congress for F110 engines. Engines will be delivered to TAI; and the project belongs to SSB, which is under CAATSA sanctions. This must mean that CAATSA is a goner in short term.

Pashanyan is truly fascinating person. I think that he knows very well that for all Armenian predicaments , Russia is to blame.
Why would they suffer from the sake of Russians and French or anybody else who isn't in the Caucasus?

I admire the guy but don’t envy him. He’s got the thankless job of waking up his heavily defeated country from century old hatred, breaking the mold his people was cast in a century ago.
Nobody will like him and everybody will curse and cuss him from all sides.
Though job.

Actual Armenians mainly suffered due to the "Armenian" diaspora in the US and France, who were busy with injecting plastic into their bodies and running illegal businesses (mainly in LA/Cali together with the russians) while expecting Armenians in Armenia to die so they can glorify their deaths on social media and victimize themselves.

Pashanyan is the first armanian politician to actually realize the damage these groups have done to his country and its people and has cut them out of any discussions, you can tell by the vitrole he gets from the "diaspora Armanians".

People who never set foot in Armenia, don't speak or can even read the language were dictating to actual armenians to start wars they were always destined to lose in horrific fashion so they can go around LA and Paris and act like victims.

We see the same characteristic from pkk aligned kurds in europe. Where they want kurds in the ME to get massacred by starting armed conflicts and then afterwards run around in Europe and social media and try to portray themselves as victims so they can gain benefits for themselves personally.

Funnily enough another point that connects those two groups is that most of them are involved in illegal businesses.
