YEREVAN — European Union Ambassador to Armenia Vassilis Maragos and Edvard Petrosyan, Director of Armenia’s Center for Humanitarian Demining and Expertise (CHDE), unveiled a second demining machine donated by the EU, a compact MV-4 model, according to the EU Delegation to Armenia.
The MV-4 follows the delivery of the larger MV-10 demining machine in July. Both machines are remotely operated, allowing demining specialists to detect and clear landmines while maintaining a safe distance from hazardous areas.
“Detecting and neutralizing landmines is a time-consuming and dangerous task,” the EU Delegation stated, emphasizing the importance of advanced equipment in improving operational safety.
In addition to providing the machinery, the EU is supporting the training of Armenian demining specialists and partially covering the center’s operating expenses.
The assistance aims to improve the safety and efficiency of humanitarian demining operations, enabling specialists to clear contaminated areas more quickly and helping residents of border communities return to normal life.
