Deep concern: How EU Ambassador is “monitoring” Vardanyan from Yerevan

27 March 2026 [14:14] - TODAY.AZ
Well, friends, let’s take a breath. It turns out that the EU Ambassador to Armenia, Vasilis Maragos, is not just spending time in Yerevan, but is indeed “closely following” the situation surrounding Ruben Vardanyan.


Armenian media, clearly interested in Brussels’ position, asked the ambassador directly whether he is informed and engaged. Maragos confirmed that he is monitoring developments, but also emphasized that this issue is fundamentally a bilateral matter — one that should be addressed primarily by Armenia itself, rather than by the European Union.


In essence, his response reflects a measured diplomatic stance: responsibility for resolving the situation lies with the parties directly involved, including dialogue with Baku. The EU, in this context, does not appear to be seeking active involvement.


Objectively speaking, it is difficult to expect a different answer. Maragos simply adhered to a cautious and professional diplomatic approach, avoiding overstepping into an issue that falls outside the EU’s direct mandate.
