You talked about Russian interference before the elections to be held in Armenia, you support the Prime Minister a month before the elections, isn’t your support also foreign interference? In Yerevan, a French journalist asked a question to French President Emmanuel Macron.
“I undertake the obligation to support this partner whom I have trusted for 8 years, as I did in the case of (President of Moldova-Ed.) Maya Sandu. I take this decision to defend Europe, Europe’s decisions by coming here, but it is not the same as those interactions, that information manipulation through the media, spreading false information, trying to destabilize the rule of law. This is the difference,” Macron said in response.
According to him, we cannot talk about intervention in this matter. “Here is an open-faced intervention, and on the contrary, there are other interventions by foreign agents, at the behest of Moscow, who are trying to falsify democracy. I give my arguments, I participate in democracy as the president of France, I do not fake. That’s the difference, it’s important to remember that.”
