Discover the latest buzz from Armenia including a missing serviceman, diplomatic discussions, and a unique rug-washing day in 'Bábo'.

In the world of Armenia, a search is underway for a contract serviceman who went missing in extreme weather conditions while traveling between combat positions. On the diplomatic front, EU diplomats were briefed on Armenia's vision for new avenues of cooperation, emphasizing the country's aspirations. Meanwhile, a surprising agreement is on the horizon as Armenia looks to collaborate with Turkiye on a dam construction project on the Araz River.

Shifting to a more light-hearted note, the book 'Bábo' takes readers on a whimsical journey of rug-washing with a group of children and their grandmother. Author Astrid Kamalyan sheds light on the heartwarming tale that captures the essence of traditional practices in a modern-day setting.

Additionally, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs highlights the significance of Armenia's foreign policy engagement in the Middle East, underscoring the region's importance in diplomatic endeavors. Armenia prepares to present compelling evidence refuting claims by Azerbaijan on energy resource violations, showcasing a commitment to transparency and justice.

As the global anti-corruption coordinator's nephew embarks on a visit to Armenia, discussions with government officials and civil society representatives promise insights into the country's anti-corruption efforts. This visit marks a key moment in Armenia's ongoing commitment to integrity and governance reforms.
