The European Union has allocated €34 million in aid to Armenia as the first tranche of a broader package to mitigate trade pressure from Russia. The funds, announced by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, are intended to help Armenia address urgent economic challenges and open new trade opportunities in regional and European markets. European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos emphasized the EU's solidarity with Armenia as a sovereign, democratic state. The aid follows Moscow's bans on Armenian product imports, which the EU condemned as unacceptable.
