All the talks in Russia, including the media publications that Armenia will withdraw from the EAEU and the forces from outside are working on it, are not true, Chairman of the Russian State Duma Committee on CIS Affairs, Eurasian Integration and Relations with Compatriots Leonid Kalashnikov said at a news conference today.

“I think Armenia’s parliament has made a definite step in a right direction by creating a standing committee to deal with Eurasian integration issues. Armenia and EAEU have firm ties which give economic effect, and which is seen in figures,” Kalashnikov said.
