The Armenian Foreign Ministry is taking diplomatic measures to render
legal assistance to six Armenian citizens arrested in Equatorial
Guinea on 8 March on charges of attempting a state coup, the Armenian
Foreign Ministry press service has told Arminfo.

The source said that the Armenian envoys in Russia and the USA had
already met their Guinean colleagues. Taking into account the fact
that Armenia has no diplomatic mission in Equatorial Guinea, the
Armenian Foreign Ministry asked the diplomatic representations of
friendly third countries for help in this issue.
