Armenia Wraps US-France-Greece Military Drills
Armenia has completed the Eagle Partner 2026 military exercise at the Zar training center, with troops from the United States, France, and Greece participating in joint peacekeeping and interoperability training.
The drills focused on improving coordination in joint operations and strengthening military cooperation between the four participating nations. Armenian defense officials praised all personnel involved for their professionalism and effective execution throughout the exercise.
France and Greece joined Eagle Partner for the first time, marking a notable expansion of the annual Armenia-US exercise.
Eagle Partner has been held annually in Armenia since 2023, originally as a bilateral defense cooperation effort between Armenia and the US. This year's edition marked a notable expansion, with military contingents from France and Greece joining for the first time.
The exercise reflects Armenia's ongoing effort to deepen ties with Western military partners. Greece's participation adds another layer to its quietly growing defense engagement across the Eastern Mediterranean and South Caucasus region.
