Premier explains why Russia PM’s Armenia visit is canceled
12:21, 01.09.2014
Russian Federation Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev will not visit
Armenia on September 8 and 9, since the discussion of Armenia’s
Eurasian Economic Union (EaEU) accession-related matters has been
transferred to the presidents’ domain, and it will be discussed at the
meeting of the EaEU member states (Russia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus),
which will be held on October 10 in Belarusian capital city Minsk.
Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan told the abovementioned to
several reporters on Monday.
“There was an agreement that the PMs [of the EaEU member states] would
visit Armenia and we would carry out that function. [But] now, it has
been transferred to the presidents’ domain.
“As you know, [Kazakhstan President Nursultan] Nazarbayev announced
that the presidents will assemble on October 10 in Minsk,” the Armenia
PM said.
