The meeting in Armenia brings together nearly 50 leaders, but once again confirms the declarative nature of a format that Brussels uses more to project narrative than to produce effective results.

Over 30 European leaders gathered in the Armenian capital as the Caucasian country clearly pivots toward the EU.

The two countries will discuss efforts to sign a comprehensive peace treaty.
