Armen Ashotyan, Chairman of the National Assembly Standing Committee on Foreign Relations, wrote in his Facebook page: “I have heard about Armenian Foreign Ministry’s response to the statement of Russian Foreign Minister. Both contexts were clear.
On the one hand the reasonable desire to avoid the Scylla of abrupt assessments and not to finally spoil relations with Russia. Hopefully this will work out.
On the other hand, the scandalous persecution of the Collective Security Treaty Organization Secretary General, and the Charybdis of considering the internal political terror of the country as solely internal. This did not work out for many reasons.
In particular, for citing Maria Zakharova during the revolution campaigns when it was advantageous”.
