Sharmazanov recalled that in 1939 Minister of Foreign Affairs of the USSR Vyacheslav Molotov signed non-aggression pact with Germany but no one calls him a Nazi or nationalist. "Everybody realizes that this treaty was signed based on Soviet Union and soviet people`s interests in order to prevent Germany`s possible attack. Nzhdeh faced the same situation. He cooperated with Germany in order to prevent possible aggression against Armenia by Berlin`s ally Turkey in case of Germany`s victory", Sharmazanov stated.
Earlier, Official Representative of Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova stated at the briefing that everybody knows Russia`s stand on display of any form of rebirth and glorification of fascism, neo-Nazism and Nazism. It is strange for us that the monument to Garegin Nzhdeh was erected in Yerevan, as we all know Armenia`s heroic participation in the Great Patriotic War, Zakharova noted.
