The other day, after the session of the CP Board, Nikol Pashinyan said in a briefing with journalists that the President of the Russian Federation did not congratulate him on his re-election, he does not know the reason. “He didn’t want to, he didn’t congratulate,” Nikol Pashinyan said briefly.

Speaking about the Armenian railway after the last session of the government, Nikol Pashinyan said that his position regarding the Armenian railway is known: it is the property of Armenia and it should be used as it sees fit.

He emphasized that they want to resolve this issue with Russia amicably, and if there is a problem, they will go to the arbitration court and resolve the issue.

Military expert Davit Jamalyan speaking about the current stage of Armenian-Russian relations, he first reminded that Russia has introduced restrictions against the import of a number of Armenian products, which, of course, is not an economic, but a political decision.

Davit Jamalyan elaborated on why Russia takes such steps.

“Any superpower, especially one with an imperial past, has a considerable resource of patience. In particular, taking into account the traditions and history of the Russian state, we see that decisions are not made all at once. In 2021, 5 years ago, they gave a chance to remain in power to the illegitimate, treacherous junta that surrenders the homeland in Armenia. This was their fatal mistake, which hit both them and us. Our and their interests coincide in many issues, they are almost identical, this was a serious blow to our collective alliance relations. of 168.am Davit Jamalyan said in a conversation with

According to the expert, in Moscow they assumed that the weakened Nikol Pashinyan could not take an open anti-Russian path, they thought that if Artsakh’s security was provided by them, they had bases in Syunik, Nikol Pashinyan would not take pronounced anti-Russian steps.

“They did not understand that Nikol Pashinyan was brought to the region precisely to remove Russia from here. He consistently followed that path, step by step the Russian ties were severed and the crisis began. Now it has come to the point that they are talking about European integration, when no one in the EU is waiting for us,” added Davit Jamalyan.

He is sure that the authorities of the day of Armenia are sure that they cannot enter the EU as a full member of that structure, and at the same time they also know that the price for the continuation of their power is to cut off Armenia from Russia.

“They are already taking open steps to leave Russia. The world is preparing for the third world war, which, of course, is a horrible prospect, but it is a fact.

Now, several countries are trying to push Armenia into the Turanian project, because Europe and the United States cannot make Turkey sufficiently manageable. Therefore, they have to take into account with him and take his interests into account and take anti-Russian steps forward.

In Russia, they see all this and understand that Nikol Pashinyan does not want to settle relations with Russia, but to make it easier to cut ties with Russia in order to prevent a social riot,” emphasized our interlocutor.

Continuing, Davit Jamalyan said that the Russian Federation did not hold Nikol Pashinyan’s hand, it only says that you can go to the EU, but first leave the EAEU. In general, the position of the Russian side on such issues is tough, and this is not only about relations with Armenia.
