Käsper Kivisoo will become the Strategic Adviser on Hybrid threats and/or Cyber Security in the European Union’s new civilian mission in Moldova (EUPM Moldova), and Enn Kooskora will join the European Union’s new civilian mission in Armenia (EUMA Armenia) as an observer.

EUMA Armenia will monitor the security situation on the border between Armenia and Azerbaijan to contribute to the stability of Armenia’s border regions. Estonian expert Enn Kooskora has worked on numerous missions, including the OSCE mission OSCE SMM in Ukraine.

The focus of EUPM Moldova will be on strategic expertise and operational support to reinforce Moldova’s internal security. Käsper Kivisoo, who will work as a short-term expert, previously worked as an adviser at the Government Office.

Estonia is posting experts to international civilian missions to help prevent and manage international conflicts. Estonian experts are posted to European Union missions in Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Iraq and Somalia, and the UN mission in Kosovo. Eight experts posted by Estonia are currently working with various international civilian missions. The civilian missions are coordinated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
