Peskov: Russia and Armenia’s relations have not and cannot be severed

Russia considers Armenia a friendly country and intends to further develop bilateral relations, Russian Presidential Spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said.

He commented on media reports that Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan has instructed all his agencies to “restore ties” with Russian partners.

“In reality, the relations between Russia and Armenia have not been severed and cannot be severed. Armenia is a friendly country for us. It is a sovereign state, but we have a lot in common in bilateral, historical, and cultural terms,” Peskov noted.
