On Tuesday at 11.30, the Prime Minister of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan will hold a speech in the European Parliament in Strasbourg.&nbsp;

Mr Pashinyan’s visit takes place in the aftermath of Azerbaijan’s military attack and recapture of the breakaway enclave Nagorno-Karabakh on 19 September, which forced over 100 000 ethnic Armenians living in the area to flee their homes. In a resolution adopted on 5 October, MEPs strongly condemned the unjustified military offensive while highlighting that the Armenian exodus amounted to ethnic cleansing.

They also called on the EU to thoroughly reassess its relations with Azerbaijan and, among other things, to suspend the current&nbsp;Memorandum of&nbsp;Understanding on a Strategic Partnership in the Field of Energy&nbsp;between the EU and Baku government.

Mr Pashinyan has been Prime Minister of Armenia since May 2018.

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol PASHINYAN gives a speech at the hemicycle in Strasbourg. Mr Pashinyan’s address comes ahead of Armenia’s parliamentary elections on 7 June 2026, which are expected to decide on the fate of the country’s peace process with neighbouring Azerbaijan, and the geopolitical orientation of the country. The ruling party in Armenia has promised lasting peace with Baku and a normalisation of relations with Türkiye, rapprochement with the West, and a possible future EU accession bid. In addition, the European Union is currently holding a visa liberalisation dialogue with Armenia and a dedicated EU-Armenia summit is planned for 5 May. This will be Mr Pashinyan’s second speech in the European Parliament, following a previous visit in 2023. "This transcription if the result of an automatic process. Please check against delivery"
