After years of semi-isolation, Armenia is now the most dynamic and most democratic of the South Caucasus republics. But Yerevan still needs slow and steady support from Brussels: Patience will be crucial, argues @Tom_deWaal. carnegieendowment.org/europe…

Exactly 22 years ago Lithuania together with all our Baltic&Central European neighbours has joined the EU 🇱🇹❤️🇪🇺. Symbolically this week I was in Denmark who has opened the EU doors to Lithuana with leaders of different captive nations still fighting for the right to be free ✊️

The full force of Russian FIMI is now being deployed against Armenia ahead of its parliamentary elections, largely recycling the same narratives used in Moldova, with attacks on Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan almost perfectly mirroring those previously directed at Maia Sandu.

Armenia’s upcoming elections will be a referendum on the country’s future. As in Moldova, the Kremlin is deploying every tool to regain influence. Armenians are reaching out to Europe. We should do the same. More democracies in Europe, more peace. My speech at @Europarl_EN:

Thank you President @ZelenskyyUa for receiving me in Kyiv — a city that has shown the world what it means to refuse to be broken. To the people of Ukraine: we see you, we stand with you, and we are grateful. In defending itself, Ukraine has also been defending Moldova.
