Introduction The countries of the world have joined forces under the auspices of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), which was agreed in 1992 and entered into force in 1994, and the Kyoto Protocol to that Convention, which was agreed in 1997 and took effect in 2005. These nations (196 parties to the UNFCCC and 192 parties to the Kyoto Protocol) work within the boundaries of the Framework Convention in order to coordinate measures for mitigation and adaptation to climate change. With mutual concern of all the countries it was decided to restrain the rise in the average temperature of global atmosphere to the maximum of 2 degrees above the pre-industrial levels (year 1850), while at the same time trying to not exceed 1.5 degrees. On February 9, 2017, Doha Amendment to Kyoto Protocol was also ratified. This document allows to continue implementation of projects in the frames of Clean Development Mechanisms, as well as use financing of Adaptation Fund established within the frames of Kyoto protocol. The Paris Agreement, that came into effect on November 4, 2016, and 189 countries ratified it as of February, 2020, has legal force and imposes climate change restrain measures on all the states worldwide. All parties are invited (Article 4/19) to develop mid-century long-term low greenhouse gas emission development strategies (LEDS). The Article 54 of the Comprehensive and Enhanced Partnership Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and the Republic of Armenia (CEPA) has envisaged to cooperate, inter alia, in development of a low- carbon development plan, development and implementation of long-term measures to mitigate climate change by addressing emissions of greenhouse gases, taking measures to mainstream climate considerations into sector-specific policies. On February 9, 2017, National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia ratified the Paris Agreement of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, which entered into force on April 22, 2017. The Republic of Armenia stated its position on the limitation of greenhouse gas emissions in subsequent national communications to the UNFCCC and in the Republic of Armenia’s Statement on Association with Copenhagen Accords and Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDC). Within the framework of the EU4Climate Programme (Programme) governments in the six EU Eastern Partner countries - Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine must take action against climate change. It supports countries in implementing the Paris Climate Agreement and improving climate policies and legislation. Its ambition is to limit climate change impact on citizens’ lives and make them more resilient to it. As a result of the Programme, UNDP will support the Government of Armenia to develop and approve a low emission development strategy by 2021. The transport sector is considering one of the key and dynamically growing sectors in terms of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Thus, the Programme addresses the sector as part of strategy on long-term low emission development. Page 2 of 52 "EU4Climate" UNDP-EU regional program 2. Climate Change and GHG emission Climate change is currently considered as one of the greatest challenges to mankind in the 21st century. A changing climate has a range of potential ecological, physical and health impacts, including extreme weather events (such as floods, droughts, storms, and heatwaves); sea-level rise; altered crop growth; and disrupted water systems. Over the last few decades, global temperatures have risen sharply - to approximately 0.7℃ higher than our 1961-1990 baseline. The weather study1, analyzing the temporal and spatial variability of thermal conditions in the Republic of Armenia, highlighted the maximum temperature increase of up to 1,5°C. Negative results have not been observed in Armenia. This rise in global average temperature is attributed to an increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Over the long period of 3,000 years, atmospheric concentrations of CO2 did not exceed 300 parts per million (ppm). This changed with the Industrial Revolution and the rise of human emissions of CO2 from burning fossil fuels. We see a rapid rise in global CO2 concentrations over the past few centuries, and in recent decades in particular. Almost all warming can be attributed to human emissions. Climate change is a global issue, and measures designed to reduce it cannot be successful unless the nations of the world act together in a coordinated and harmonious manner. GHG emission volumes differ from different chapters of the Globe. 1 Long Term Variability of Temperature in Armenia in the Context of Climate Change. Hrachuhi Galstyan, Lucian Sfica,

    AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF ARMENIA Master’s Essay “Landlockedness as a Challenge for Development: The Case of Armenia” Department of Political Science and International Affairs Student: Narek Harutyunyan Faculty Advisor: Aleksandr Grigoryan Specialization track: International Relations YEREVAN 2015 Acknowledgement I would like to express my immense gratitude to my Faculty Advisor Dr. Aleksandr Grigoryan for his unlimited assistance and encouragement. I am fully convinced that the skills, knowledge and technics that I have learned from my advisor during these months will have their significant contribution to my further professional career. I would also like to thank the whole faculty of the School of Political Science and International Affairs for the huge potential and skills that they developed in me during these two years of study. The analytical and critical skills gained during the study in the program are of highest importance for the academic career in the future. 2 Abstract This research aims to find the main challenges of the landlocked states and identify how the landlockedness affects their development. In this regard, the study uses the following research tools: meta-analysis of the other researches, a two-stage regression analysis of data from World Bank, IMF and UN Datasets, semi-structured in-depth interviews and document analysis of agreements and strategy papers. The findings are grouped in two main parts. The first part discusses the overall development problems of landlocked states, while the second part of the research focuses on Armenia as a landlocked country. The first stage of the analysis shows that the landlockedness creates additional 1070 $ export cost per container.

Boasting high species richness and levels of endemism, among other exceptional characteristics, this mountainous region between the Black and Caspian Seas is globally important for biodiversity conservation. In the upcoming section of this thirty-ninth issue of Russian Conservation News, we spotlight one of the countries at the heart of this special region: Armenia. The following pages of the journal offer a rounded conservation profile of the country, including descrip- tions of its varied landscapes and rich biodiversity. Although the pres- ent Armenian state is no larger than Russia’s Lake Baikal, its landscapes are remarkably diverse, including semi-desert, juniper sparse forest, broadleaf forest, mountain steppe, and sub-alpine meadow habitats. These habitats harbor many rare species, such as the Persian leopard, which stealthily prowls Armenia’s southern regions.

Armenia is an ancient land with a rich culture and identity. A cradle of civilisation which flourished on its fertile high plateaus and gained protection and sanctuary in its mountainous landscape. It is a land fought over by Byzantine, Persian, Roman and Islamic empires as an important centre and a major component of the ancient Silk Trading Routes. Armenia was also the seat of ancient kings who embraced early Christianity in the 3rd century making Armenia the first sovereign nation in the world to adopt Christianity and a centre for pilgrimage and ecclesiastical architecture, culture and learning. In modern times, Armenia was part of the Soviet Union and became independent in 1991.
