Russia's Ambassador to Armenia Recalled to Moscow for Consultations
"Russia's Ambassador to Armenia, Sergey Kopyrkin, has been recalled to Moscow for consultations in connection with steps taken by the Armenian leadership to draw closer to the European Union, which are harming cooperation within the EAEU, reports the Russian Foreign Ministry.
Yesterday, Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan at the summit in Astana demanded that Armenia hold a referendum and decide whether the country remains part of the Eurasian Economic Union or continues to strive for accession to the European Union.
Putin also hinted at problems in Armenia.
"I told Nikol Vovaevich: 'Everything that is good for Armenians is acceptable and good for Russia. Do as you see fit, based on the interests of the Armenian people. You are currently in power, and the responsibility for making decisions lies with you. As you say – so it will be,' Putin said.
Parliamentary elections will be held in Armenia on June 7. Against this backdrop, relations between Moscow and Yerevan have sharply deteriorated. Russia accuses the current Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, of a pro-Western course. Moscow also demands that the head of the Russian industrial and construction group Tashir, businessman Samvel Karapetyan, be allowed to participate in the elections. In response to Yerevan's attempts to draw closer to the European Union, Russia has begun to impose restrictions on the import of products from Armenia.
