TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The people of Armenia will lose the Russian market and the entire EAEU as a result of the dangerous course of the country’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, said Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev.
Medvedev previously stated that Pashinyan had taken a course toward breaking relations with Russia.
“(He) made a major mistake in his coordinate system and is pursuing an extremely dangerous course for his country,” the deputy chairman of the Russian Security Council stated.
“Think about it: as a result of the actions of this very specific … man, the entire people of Armenia will lose, who will be deprived of the Russian market, the entire EAEU, and economic ties built over decades,” he added.
Medvedev said that Pashinyan’s course could lead to Yerevan having to buy Russian gas at European prices, which is three times more expensive than current tariffs. The deputy chairman of the Security Council suggested that the Armenian prime minister ask citizens if they are ready for such a price.
