Russian Deputy PM arrives in Yerevan

A meeting took place in Yerevan between Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan and Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexey Overchuk. During the talks, the two sides discussed key issues of Armenian-Russian cooperation, including collaboration within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), the dynamics of bilateral trade, and the implementation of joint projects.

Overchuk had previously stated that during his visit he intended to address Armenia’s participation in the EAEU, especially in light of the recent parliamentary decision to initiate the process of integration with the European Union. The agenda also included discussions on unblocking transport and economic communications in the South Caucasus region.
