The European Political Community Summit in Yerevan on 4 May

The 8th Summit of the European Political Community will take place on May 4, 2026 in Yerevan, Republic of Armenia, under the motto "Building the Future: Unity and Stability in Europe." This session will reflect on the significance of hosting the EPC Summit in Yerevan, what it means for Armenia-EU relations, the regional peace process, and broader questions of stability and cooperation across the continent.

The Parliamentary Elections in Armenia on 7 June

The 2026 Parliamentary Elections, scheduled for 7 June, are a defining moment in the history of the Armenian state. Different countries are trying to influence the process through their proxies in Armenia and through disinformation. This session will discuss the different scenarios that can come out of the elections, current strategies to minimise external interference, and whether they are enough.

Panel:

Johnny Melikyan, Senior Fellow, ORBELI Research Analytical Center

Narek Minasyan, Associate Expert at the Armenian Council Research Center

Amanda Paul, Deputy Head of the Europe in the World Programme and Senior Policy Analyst at the European Policy Centre

Thursday Interview: Murad Muradov

15 January 2026
Today, commonspace.eu starts a new regular weekly series. THURSDAY INTERVIEW, conducted by Lauri Nikulainen, will host  persons who are thinkers, opinion shapers, and implementors in their countries and spheres. We start the series with an interview with Murad Muradov, a leading person in Azerbaijan's think tank community. He is also the first co-chair of the Action Committee for a new Armenian-Azerbaijani Dialogue. Last September he made history by being the first Azerbaijani civil society activist to visit Armenia after the 44 day war, and the start of the peace process. Speaking about this visit Murad Muradov said: "My experience was largely positive. My negative expectations luckily didn’t play out. The discussions were respectful, the panel format bringing together experts from Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Turkey was particularly valuable during the NATO Rose-Roth Seminar in Yerevan, and media coverage, while varied in tone, remained largely constructive. Some media outlets though attempted to represent me as more of a government mouthpiece than an independent expert, which was totally misleading.  Overall, I see these initiatives as important steps in rebuilding trust and normalising professional engagement. The fact that soon a larger Azerbaijani civil society visits to Armenia followed, reinforces the sense that this process is moving in the right direction."
