Lavrov: If Pashinyan thinks that Armenia will get rich without Russia, let him try

If Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan says that Armenia will get rich without Russia, then let him try. This was stated by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov in an interview with IS "Vesti".

"I cannot comment on the statements of the Armenian leader. If he thinks that she will get richer, let her provide," Lavrov said.

Earlier, at a meeting with voters in the city of Garni, Pashinyan said that Armenia is not afraid of high prices for raw materials in case of deterioration of ties with Russia, as the country "plans to get rich."

As EADaily reported, according to the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova, Russia has already warned Armenia about the possible termination of the agreement on the supply of gas, petroleum products and diamonds if Yerevan joins the EU.
