French Members of the European Parliament Sylvie Guillaume and François Alfonsi, the co-chairs of the Friendship Group with Artsakh at the European Parliament, and Hungarian Member of the European Parliament and member of the Friendship Group with Artsakh Attila Ara-Kovacs will be in Armenia on a fact-finding mission from February 21 to 24, the European Armenian Federation for Justice and Democracy (EAFJD) said in a press release.

EAFJD President Kaspar Karampetian and other EAFJD representatives will accompany the delegation in Armenia.

The agenda of the visit includes meetings with the legislative and executive authorities, the Catholicos Karekin II, the opposition, and the Foreign Minister of Artsakh. A separate meeting with the ARF representatives is also planned.

On February 22, the delegation will visit Syunik province and the communities affected in the latest Azerbaijani aggression.

Another EP delegation was in Armenia in October of 2022. The EAFJD credited the members of that delegation with having an important role in the EP in the adoption of documents related to Armenia, namely the Humanitarian Consequences of the Blockade in Nagorno Karabakh resolution and the 2021-2022 report on the EU-Armenia relations.
