Russia MFA comments on strengthening of Armenia-France military cooperation
The Western agenda in the South Caucasus does not always correspond to the interests of the countries of the region, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin told RIA Novosti, commenting on the strengthening of military cooperation between Armenia and France.
"The non-regionals come to the South Caucasus with their own agenda, which does not always correspond, to put it mildly, to the interests of the regional countries. Today, Western countries are moving towards the South Caucasus with an anti-Russian agenda of open confrontation. We [i.e. Russia] believe that this will not contribute to stability and security in Transcaucasia," said Galuzin.
