ArmInfo. Armenia has long been prepared for various scenarios. Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan made this statement during a briefing on April 9, in response to a question about a possible increase in the process of Russian gas in Armenia, given the existing restrictions on flower and cognac exports from Armenia.
However, the Prime Minister urged against thinking in terms of "if." He emphasized that Armenia and Russia have long-term agreements. "There is no basis for what you said," Pashinyan added. According to him, Armenia cannot have relations with any country based on the logic of thinking about one party violating the agreement. "And this means that the violating party is not a party to the agreement. How can that be?" he asked.
Commenting on the restrictions imposed by Russia on the export of flowers and cognac from Armenia, the prime minister noted that each case must be considered individually. He recalled that he had repeatedly spoken about the need to standardize production. Moreover, according to Pashinyan, the state has invested millions of dollars in implementing these processes.
