Russia is convinced that the EAEU is more beneficial for Armenia than a European orientation, Dmitry Peskov, spokesman for the president of Russia, told Izvestia.

“We are convinced that if you put a European orientation and an EAEU orientation on the scales, the EAEU outweighs for Armenia. It is more advantageous for Armenians. They earn more money through the EAEU, they have a better future with the EAEU, they develop faster with the EAEU. With Europe, none of that will happen,” Peskov said.
