Russian Ambassador: Almost all opposition forces are in favor of Armenia’s accession to EEU
Armenia’s membership in the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) is a right strategic decision, which absolutely does not mean that the doors are closed for cooperation with other countries, Russia’s Ambassador to Armenia Ivan Volynkin said at a briefing on Saturday.
According to the envoy, Russia also develops relations with the European Union member countries, so it is normal for a state to maintain multilateral relations. “The most important thing is that it should not be harmful,” the diplomat stressed.
Commenting on the opposition rally held in Yerevan on Friday, the idea of change of power and the fears that those processes may lead to worsening of relations with Russia, Volynkin said that almost all opposition forces are in favor of Armenia’s accession to the Eurasian Economic Union.
