There was a big meeting in Armenia. The meeting is called European Political Community. Almost 40 heads of states from Europe were there. Armenia lies between Europe and Asia. Armenia was once a close friend of Russia.
Now Armenia looks for a bond with the EU. The country feels let down by Russia. This is due to a lost war against Azerbaijan. Russia did not help Armenia in this war. Armenia wants new partners in Europe now.
There was also music at the meeting. Emmanuel Macron is the president of France. He sang a song. Nikol Pashinyan is the leader of Armenia. He played the drums for it. The song was by Charles Aznavour. Aznavour was a famous singer with roots in Armenia.
Russia does not like the link to Europe. Russia threatens Armenia with money pressure. For example, Armenia can sell fewer goods to Russia. The people in Armenia are unsure. Some want to stay partners with Russia. Others hope for help from Europe.
