EU official congratulates Armenia's ruling party on election win

An EU official congratulated Armenia's ruling party after it secured over 54 percent of the vote in the country's parliamentary election. The party, Civil Contract, retained its majority. The result came after a campaign that centered on Armenia's foreign policy orientation.

Election context The vote was presented by some observers as a choice between closer alignment with Western institutions and stronger ties with Russia. Opposition parties advocated for renewed cooperation with Moscow. The ruling party maintained its existing policy direction.

International response The EU statement welcomed the outcome without detailing specific policy commitments. No further statements from other governments were included in the available reporting.
