Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova urged Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to name the countries that “imitated assistance” to the country during the war in Nagorno-Karabakh, RIA Novosti reported.

Earlier, Pashinyan accused two CSTO countries of preparing a war in Artsakh against Armenia in 2020. According to him, the two countries were engaged in “imitation assistance” to the country.

“It would be quite logical to name them if we are talking about such serious statements. But let’s leave it to official Yerevan,” she said.

Zakharova stressed that Russia has done everything in its power to ensure that Armenia “does not feel abandoned and forgotten.” She recalled that since the first days of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, Moscow has made the most active political and diplomatic efforts for a ceasefire.
