ArmInfo.It is a mistake to believe people stating that Russia never makes implications - Russia makes implications always. Such an opinion was shared with journalists iin Yerevan by Constantin Zatulin, the Russian State Duma CIS Affairs Commission Head.
"The events of last year April became a reason for some groups in Armenia to have doubts in necessity to improve relations with Russia. I think that today, when we mark the 25th Anniversary of diplomatic relations establishment, nothing should be a reason to put under doubt the priority of these relations. And Russia has no such relations with any country in the region, like it has with Armenia. Moreover, I do not think that there are preconditions to have such relations with other countries," he mentioned. According to Zatulin, appropriate lessons were picked from 2016 April situation also by Moscow, which tries to ensure Yerevan in the strength of bilateral relations doing that through rearmament, joint air defense system setting and joint military group establishment.
According to his estimations, the balance in the region was broken when Russia sold armaments to Azerbaijan and Azerbaijan used that armaments. But after the latest armament shipment s to Armenia the balance has been recovered. In this meaning, the probability of resuming the combat actions in Karabakh with the same intensity like it was in April 2016, is very low.
