Armenia will not deviate from our intention to develop our strategic partnership with Russia, Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan said in an interview with Euractiv.
Asked whether relationship with EU and Russia can be grown in tandem, Pashinyan said “that is our strong belief, and my visit to Brussels is a testimony to that.”
“From the very first day, we announced that our democracy does not have any foreign policy dimension. Armenia has a reputation of a reliable partner in international politics. We also highly value our people’s legitimate demands that were formulated in April-May last year.
Democracy, free economic relations, a relentless struggle against corruption, independent courts, and the rule of law do not have any orientation. We will consistently work to strengthen these values. At the same time, we will not deviate from our intention to develop our strategic partnership with Russia on the basis of mutual respect of sovereignty and mutual interests of our nations,” Armenian PM said.
