Armenian authorities declare highest-ranking head of pro-Armenian  lobby in Russia persona non grata

Armenian authorities declare highest-ranking head of pro-Armenian  lobby in Russia persona non grata

ArmInfo.The Armenian authorities declared Konstantin Zatulin, the most pro-Armenian MP of Russia, persona non grata.

As it became known today from a message on the website of the  "Haykakan Zhamanak" newspaper, owned by the family of the current  Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan, the  chairman of the Committee of the Russian Federation for CIS Affairs,  Eurasian Integration and Relations with Compatriots Konstantin  Zatulin has been declared an "undesirable" person in Armenia. He is  banned from entering the Republic of Armenia.

At the same time, on the newspaper's website, the ban is argued by  the fact that Zatulin has repeatedly accused the Armenian authorities  of losing during the 44-day war in 2020. Moreover, in the article,  Zatulin was accused of interfering in the internal affairs of  Armenia, as well as of voicing the thesis that the country's  authorities are trying to drive a wedge into the Armenian-Russian  allied relations.

"And in an interview given to Yerkir Media during his last visit to  Armenia, Zatulin accused the Prime Minister of signing an agreement  with Azerbaijan on a "corridor" through the sovereign territory of  Armenia. "Questions about a possible corridor should be asked to the  signatories, the "corridor" signed by Pashinyan," Zatulin said.

 We note however, that in the tripartite statement of November 9  there is no mention of a corridor through the sovereign territory of  the Republic of Armenia. The statement only mentions the Lachin  corridor," the article says.  It is noteworthy that not only Zatulin  spoke about the "corridor", but also the leadership of Azerbaijan and  Turkey many times.  ArmInfo tried to get a comment in this regard  from Zatulin's office, However, the MP is still not in touch.  Let us  add that this message was published on the eve of the meeting of the  Armenian-Russian "Lazarev Club" scheduled for October 27 in Yerevan.  From this statement, one can assume that the meeting of the club,  which is led by Zatulin from the Russian side, may be in question.

Let us also add that a few days earlier, Konstantin Zatulin, on the  air of one of the Russian federal channels, again stood up for  Armenia and the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh, saying that if the  Armenian authorities sign the "Western version" of the peace  agreement with Azerbaijan, then the Armenians of Artsakh will face  genocide. Later, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry sent a note of  protest to Russia in connection with the pro-Armenian "hostile  statements" allegedly heard on Russian federal channels against  Azerbaijan.

Такие действия ассоциируются с действиями соседнего государства и не достойны для нашей страны.

Запрет на въезд в Армению самого дружественного армянам россиянина в приличном обществе должен был бы поставить крест на властях, инициировавших такой запрет. Это еще раз наглядно высвечивает, что такие власти озабочены своим престижем больше, чем судьбой Родины. Какие еще большие доказательства неадекватности мягко говоря таких властей нужны этому обществу Это -позор!!!, которым власть покрыла армянский позор. Если общество в очередной раз это стерпит, значит, оно недорогого стоит. Остается надеяться, что сам К. Затулин простит это и не перенесет возмущение властями Армении на весь народ.,
