Aide to Russian president: We do not welcome the presence of the EU mission in Armenia

Not all participants in the negotiation process between Baku and Yerevan welcome the fact of the expansion of the EU mission in Armenia, RIA Novosti reports, citing Aide to the President of Russia for Foreign Policy Yuri Ushakov.

“The activity of the EU mission in Armenia is not welcomed. I regret to note that this mission is expanding. In June, it was 138-strong, now it is about 210-strong. And there are plans to make the mission 600-strong. We can, of course, imagine what they are up to there,” Ushakov said.
