YEREVAN. – Hraparak daily of Armenia writes: Parallel to the anti-Russian and pro-Western deviations of Armenia’s authorities, the RF [(Russian Federation)] authorities are trying to take corresponding steps in order not to let the region—that is, Armenia—go of their hands.

We learned from Russia’s political science circles and those [circles] close to them that realignment will take place in the Armenian domestic political arena in the near future.

Russia not only realizes that anti-Russian sentiments are growing, and now there is a stable 18 percent against Russia in Armenia’s society, which is a huge number, but also realizes that anti-Russianness has taken root [in Armenia] especially among the elite, which is dangerous. For that, they will try to start propaganda work; they will also try to enter new players, new faces into the game.

It is no coincidence that [Russian Armenian] businessman Ruben Vardanyan's moving to Artsakh [(Nagorno-Karabakh)] has thrown some Soros and pro-Western circles [in Armenia] into a psychological disturbance, which are trying to make counter-propaganda against Vardanyan and spreading the theory that the Kremlin has sent him to Artsakh.
