Armenia to continue developing relations with Russia - MFA

ArmInfo.. Armenia is closely linked to Russia through its economic ties. This was stated by RA  Foreign Minister Ararat Mirzoyan in the National Assembly of the Republic of Armenia on October 31.

He pointed to the differences between the two countries on a number  of political issues, especially regarding the CSTO, of which Armenia  and Russia are members. "We continue to believe that the Organization  has not responded properly to the encroachments on the country's  borders," the minister emphasized, noting that Armenia will continue  to develop relations with Russia, including through the EAEU.

Speaking about relations with the United States, the minister  recalled the signing of a document on strategic dialogue between  Yerevan and Washington. He noted that negotiations are also underway  on a number of individual areas of cooperation, the results of which  will become obvious if not this year, then definitely in 2025.

As for relations with the European Union, Mirzoyan emphasized the  importance of starting a dialogue with the EU on visa liberalization.  He also noted the cooperation within the framework of the EU Peace  Fund, from which Armenia has the opportunity to receive albeit small,  but politically important assistance.
