YEREVAN, August 28. /ARKA/. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has called on Armenia to make an honest choice between the EU and the EAEU.
Earlier, Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan stated that Armenia intends to achieve visa liberalization with the EU by 2029 and may soon begin the process of applying for EU membership.
“The goal of orientation towards the European Union has been declared, and a law has been adopted to start the process of joining the European Union. The countries of the Eurasian Economic Union issued a statement at the May summit urging the Armenian leadership to hold a referendum and decide whether they want to join the EU or remain in the Eurasian Economic Union. In my opinion, this is a completely justified request,” Lavrov noted.
