The European Union’s border-monitoring mission in Armenia (EUMA) has reported no unusual movements of the Armenian military after Azerbaijan earlier on March 31 claimed Armenian troops had massed along the border. “EUMA patrolled along the Armenia-Azerbaijan border all day long. Everything is calm and quiet, no unusual movements observed. EUMA wishes everybody a peaceful Easter!” the mission said on X, formerly Twitter. Armenia’s Defense Ministry earlier released a statement refuting the allegations by Azerbaijan’s Defense Ministry. Claims and counterclaims between Yerevan and Baku are taking place against the backdrop of efforts to start delimitation and demarcation of their heavily militarized South Caucasus border.
