“True, a letter from a relevant agency regarding this has been received and relevant agencies are currently maintaining communication. I am not authorized to reveal more information,” the Russian presidential spokesman said, taking a TASS reporter’s question, as he commented on a statement by Armenian Prime Minster Nikol Pashinyan about Russian border troops at Yerevan Airport.
“Naturally, contacts on all possible levels will be continued,” Peskov assured reporters.
Earlier on Tuesday, Pashinyan said that Armenian border guards had notified their Russian counterparts that Armenia is capable of ensuring the smooth operation of border control functions at the Zvartnots airport without Russian assistance. Prior to that, Armenian Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan said that Yerevan had sent an official letter to Moscow asking it to discontinue the operations of Russian border guards at the airport.
