Russian diplomat deplores Armenian parliament speaker's 'unfriendly' comments
Russia views a remark by Armenian National Assembly Speaker Alen Simonyan who called for withdrawing Russian border guards from Zvartnots International Airport in Yerevan as an unfriendly step, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said.
"We view this as yet another unfriendly step by a Yerevan official," TASS quoted the Russian diplomat as telling a press briefing.
According to Zakharova, Moscow has not yet received any Armenian requests regarding this issue.
Earlier, Simonyan urged the withdrawal of Russian border guards from the Yerevan airport.
