The U.S. Embassy in Armenia issued a statement on the
Armenia-U.S. joint military exercises held in Armenia. It is noted that 85 U.S.
soldiers and 175 Armenian soldiers are taking part in the Eagle Partner
exercise.

“The Eagle Partner exercise is a testament to our
longstanding partnership with Armenia and builds upon decades of successful
peacekeeping and security cooperation, underpinned by Armenia’s enduring
relationship with the Kansas national Guard under the Department of Defense’s
State Partnership Program,” said Ambassador Kvien.

“Our ties with Armenia are multifaceted and cooperative. The
U.S. has consistently extended military assistance to Armenia, especially in
bolstering the nation’s capabilities in crucial areas such as nonproliferation
and peacekeeping,” said Major General Anderson.
