EU NEIGHBOURS. On 9 November, the EU announced that it would provide Armenia with €35.6 million in grants to support the country’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The EU’s decision follows a positive assessment of Armenia’s progress in selected sector reform areas, macroeconomic stability, public financial management and state budget transparency.
This support is part of the EU’s €92 million assistance package for Armenia (announced in April), which includes restructured and new funds to support the country in the fight against COVID-19.
