French FM visits Jermuk

    The chief of the Armenian army’s General Staff, Major-General Edvard Asryan praised the EU monitoring mission’s work in Armenia as he met with visiting French Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs Catherine Colonna in Jermuk, a spa town in Armenia’s southern Vayots Dzor Province, on Friday.

    “Definitely, I highly appreciate the EU monitoring work in the Republic of Armenia. With this work the Azerbaijani military are more restrained. The work is done very well along the borders of Armenia,” ARMENPRESS quoted Asryan as saying.

    Colonna also hailed the cooperation between Armenia and the EU monitoring mission as "very positive". “This work gives positive results for us. It allows us to get information through the monitoring work on the ground that is useful for the EU members. This is a monitoring mission, not an armed mission, the purpose is to monitor the situation, but in any case that presence allows to reduce tension,” the French FM said.
