According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, the head of the Armenian diplomatic mission was told of the "categorical inacceptability of providing a 'platform' to ... Zelenskyy in Armenia within the framework of recent events under the auspices of the EU to voice terrorist threats against Russia."
Russian diplomats emphasized that Moscow feels justified indignation in this regard and "considers the absence of a proper negative assessment by official Yerevan of such blatant behavior by the aforementioned visitor to be inconsistent with the partnership nature of Russian-Armenian relations."
The Armenian Ambassador promised to report the representation made by the Russian side to Yerevan.
