Ursula von der Leyen arrives in Armenia on July 2. His visit is presented as a demonstration of support to Armenia against Russian sanctions. And Von Der Leyen, of course, during his press conference in Armenia, may “consume” all the agricultural products of Armenia at once, in spite of Russia.

But, of course, all that is nonsense that will hang from the ears of the Armenian people, and the main meaning of von der Leyen’s visit will certainly be how Armenia will ensure the construction of the Trans-Caspian transport corridor, which is key to the European strategy, in other words, what legal status will it give to Europe? And before that, since this construction is not possible without Azerbaijan, Von Der Leyen, of course, before leaving for Baku, must get an answer to the question of what Yerevan will give to Azerbaijan in order for Azerbaijan to agree to the EU share.
