After Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan claimed that Yerevan had halted its membership in the Russian-led Collective Security Treaty Organisation (CSTO) because the agreement had failed the nation, the Kremlin announced on Friday that Russia intended to get in touch with Armenia.
In an interview that was aired on Thursday, Pashinyan made the remarks.
In recent months, he has voiced his displeasure with Armenia’s long-standing relations with Russia, stating that Armenia could no longer rely on Moscow to provide its defence needs. Additionally, he has indicated that its CSTO membership is being reviewed.
Moscow needs additional information from Armenia, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said on Friday on the Zvezda television station, which is controlled by the defence ministry.
