Pashinyan commented on Azeri attacks on Armenians in Moscow
Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has commented on the recent wave of Azeri attacks at Armenian natives in Russia. In an interview with Russian RBK TV Channel Pashinyan noted that recent attacks are not only the demonstration of the anti-Armenian rhetoric of the Azerbaijani leadership but also an attempt to destabilize Russia and turn the country into a stage of inter-ethnic clashes.
“There is no doubt that Russian authorities have all means and capabilities to prevent the ongoing developments. Our compatriots, residing in Russia, in turn, should avoid yielding to provocations and realise that third parties who are interested in destabilizing Russia are those who had expansionist and anti-Armenian aspirations in the South Caucasus. We will not allow that,” Pashinyan said in a Facebook post.
As the PM added, the full interview will be aired next week.
