YEREVAN. – Russian Federation (RF) President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Armenia was expected in the latter half of September, Azg daily reports. 

“A source close to the Kremlin, however, informs that this visit will not take place.

“According to an assumption, the reason might be that Putin has received what he wanted from Armenia and what he earlier expected to receive during his visit to Armenia.

“For reasons known only to him, Putin accelerated the processes and received what was to be received during [Armenian President] Serzh Sargsyan’s visit to RF. So, there is no need for Putin’s visit to Armenia.   

“According to another assumption, Putin is very sensitive toward discontent against him and he does not want to witness the expressions of the current anti-Russian sentiments in Armenia, which [i.e., the expressions] could especially be manifested during the days of his visit,” Azg writes.  

To note, as a result of the talks that were held on September 3 in Moscow between Armenian and Russian Presidents Serzh Sargsyan and Vladimir Putin, it was announced that Armenia plans to join the Customs Union and subsequently engage in the formation of the Eurasian Economic Union.
