Vartan Oskanian։ Europe’s Shameful Silence in Armenia
![]() 396 Friday, 25 July, 2025, 16:08 As Armenia abandons democracy and descends ever deeper into authoritarianism, the European Union watches in silence. In fact, it is worse than silence. The EU—along with the embassies of its member states in Yerevan—is complicit through willful inaction, diplomatic hedging, and strategic cynicism. For decades, the West has invested hundreds of millions of euros in fostering reform in Armenia—supporting its judiciary, police, press, and civil society. Today, all of these institutions are being weaponized by Nikol Pashinyan’s government, transformed from pillars of democracy into tools of repression. Yet the EU remains a passive bystander, seemingly unwilling to let principle interfere with political convenience. Source: Վարդան Օսկանյան |
