Armenia

During the summer of 2025, I spent two months in Armenia interning with EVN Report, Armenia’s leading English-language news site, writing long-form, in-depth analytical pieces for them about the country’s geopolitical and economic landscape. I delved into the risk of foreign interference in Armenia’s upcoming 2026 parliamentary elections. I also traveled to the Syunik Province, on Armenia’s border with Azerbaijan, which has borne and continues to bear the impact of war between both nations. There, I spoke with families living on the frontlines and saw firsthand how these communities continue to survive amid the violence.
