ArmInfo.In the coming months, the EU Mission in Armenia  (EUMA) plans to open three additional  operational centers - in Kapan, Ijevan and Yeghegnadzor. This is stated in the message of the EU Delegation to Armenia.

The report emphasizes that on June 1, the head of the EU mission,  Markus Ritter, together with  head of the EU delegation to Armenia,  Andrea Wiktorin, met in Martuni with the EUMA working group. Ritter  presented the mission's mandate and activities, and briefed on  security developments on the ground based on the mission's  observations. He noted that in the first three months, a total of  more than 300 observations were made from operational centers in  Goris, Jermuk and Martuni. Every week observers cover more than 3800  km. <The mission took off with unprecedented speed. In the coming  months, the mission plans to open three additional operational points  in Kapan, Ijevan and Yeghegnadzor, gradually reaching full readiness  in the near future. Our goal is to contribute to the stabilization of  the security of the border regions. And, according to many Armenian  officials, EUMA contributed to a certain stabilization of the  situation.  However, the situation remains unstable>, Ritter said.

We add that the mission of EU civilian observers in Armenia started  its activity in February for a period of two years. It monitors  violations on the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.
