Peskov: Russia is monitoring Armenia's rapprochement with the European Union

Russia sees Armenia's desire to balance in different directions and is monitoring its rapprochement with the European Union (EU).

As reported by RIA Novosti, this was announced by the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Peskov.

"But at the same time, they (Armenia - ed.) are interested in the SCO. That is, they are pursuing a multi-vector policy, as they see it," he continued.

It should be noted that the Prime Minister of Armenia, Nikol Pashinyan, previously stated that he considers the country's withdrawal from the CSTO more likely than unfreezing its participation in the organization. Peskov, in a comment to the radio station "Mayak," noted that this is Armenia's sovereign affair.
