EU Neighbours East (9 June 2026)

The European Union has congratulated the citizens of the Republic of Armenia “on exercising their sovereign democratic right to vote in parliamentary elections”, which took place on 7 June, and commended “the high level of civic participation”.

According to the Central Electoral Commission of Armenia, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan’s Civil Contract party won the parliamentary elections, garnering 49.81% of the vote.
