Armenia builds international relations on the principle of sovereign equality: MFA spokesperson responds to Karasin
Armenia is constantly building its international relations on the principle of sovereign equality, spokesperson for Armenia’s Foreign Ministry Anna Naghdalyan told Aysor.am.
“We are not building relations with any state on the account of the relations with the other. This approach still remains the basis of our foreign policy,” Naghdalyan said.
Earlier Russian deputy foreign minister Grigor Karasin told Russian RIA Novosti that “We hope that the current leadership of Armenia which has got the necessary mandate at the elections will have the ‘courage’ to confront the external blackmail and pressure, to protect its sovereignty and right to make decisions on its own, in accordance with its national interests,” the Russian deputy minister said.
