Macron in Yerevan: Armenia is No Longer a "Russian Satellite"
Political
At the European Political Community summit in Yerevan, French President Emmanuel Macron delivered a resonant statement regarding Armenia's foreign policy. According to the French leader, the country has achieved a fundamental breakthrough by shedding its status as a "Russian satellite" and transforming into an independent actor that commands the attention of the world's leading powers.
Emmanuel Macron spoke highly of the transformation of Armenia's foreign policy course under the leadership of Nikol Pashinyan. Speaking in Yerevan, the French President emphasized that just eight years ago, the international community perceived the republic almost exclusively as an actual ally of Moscow, with whom direct dialogue was not deemed necessary. However, the situation has changed radically today.
Macron linked Yerevan's current successes to the aftermath of the 2018 "Velvet Revolution," which launched the country's integration process into the broader European space. "The fact that we see so many visits to your country today is very telling," he noted. According to the French leader, Armenia has ceased to be a "satellite at the negotiating table," demonstrating a readiness for multi-vector cooperation and participation in shaping the future of Europe.
