Nikol Pashinyan, Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia, is not solving problems through his policies and public statements, but only making them worse. This was stated to Alpha News in the National Assembly by Artur Khachatryan, a deputy from the “Armenia” faction, commenting on the restrictions facing Armenian agricultural products and business on the Russian market.
“As we can see, he simply cannot establish relations with Russia, cannot secure access to new markets, and what’s more, he is trying to harm local producers with his statements,” the deputy noted.
Responding to a question about whether Pashinyan would manage to resolve this problem during his visit to Kyrgyzstan today, Khachatryan stressed:
“He tried once to speak with Mikhail Mishustin, Prime Minister of Russia, but received a clear response from the Russian side. Then he spoke with the President of Russia, but again without success. So I don’t think he will succeed today.”
