Moscow says Armenia risks losing EAEU advantages if lured by Western agenda

Moscow is concerned about Yerevan's tilt toward the EU, because Armenia stands to lose the benefits of the EAEU if the West draws it into its geopolitical games, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Grushko told journalists, AzVision.az reports, citing TASS.

"Naturally, Armenia's aspiration to join the EU is a concern for us, because such an aspiration is incompatible with this country's membership in the EAEU and we talk about this in our regular contacts with our Armenian colleagues," the diplomat said.

"It is well known that Armenia is developing dynamically thanks to its participation in the EAEU, and economic growth is observed in all the regions that are key for Yerevan. And this is a huge asset that Armenia could lose if the West draws it into its geopolitical game in an attempt to separate Armenia from Russia and other natural allies."
