Military attache to be appointed at Armenia`s ambassador to Belgium 

ArmInfo. The position of military attache will be created at the Armenian Embassy in Brussels, who will deal with issues related to increasing the level of  cooperation with both the Kingdom of Belgium and the European Union  and NATO. The decision on this was made at the meeting of the RA  government on March 6.

As noted in the justification of the project, this decision is due to  the recent significant development of cooperation between Armenia and  Belgium and the European Union in the fields of defense and security.   The support provided to Armenia within the framework of the European  Peace Fund, the start of negotiations on a framework agreement on  Armenia's participation in EU crisis management missions, as well as  a significant expansion of the security and defense component in the  new Armenia-European Union partnership agenda have created favorable  conditions for the further development of military cooperation with  the EU.

The military cooperation launched with Belgium can also play a  positive role in the development of Armenia's defense capability and  sustainability in the long term.

The Military Attache will deal with issues of strengthening  cooperation with the EU, participate in various discussions, provide  military and military-political priorities and approaches of Armenia  in the context of maintaining international peace and security.
