Armenia suspends participation in the CDC: Pashinyan threatened Russian with consequences

According to the Prime Minister of the country, Russia "openly calls on the Armenian population to overthrow power. " Pashinyan claims that for several months Russian propaganda against Armenia does not weaken. Armenian Prime Minister Nicol Pashinyan announced the termination of his country's participation in organizing a collective security agreement (CDU). He also expressed a sharp criticism against the actions of the Russian authorities in Armenia.

Pashinyan said this in an interview with France 24. Armenian Prime Minister warned Russia about possible "consequences". "The participation of Armenia in the organization of the Collective Security Treaty (CDU), which is dominated by Moscow, frozen. At the same time, the issue of preserving the Russian military base in Armenia in Humru is not on the agenda," Nicol Pashinyan said.

He accused Russia of the open call of the Armenian population to overthrow the authorities, claiming that this propaganda from the Kremlin has been going on for several months and did not weaken. Pashinyan also emphasized his concerns about the abduction of Dmitry Setrakov, a Russian serviceman who was mobilized to the Russian army, but he fled from part and went to Armenia.

He was detained by employees of the Russian military police and sent to the base of the Russian Federation in Humr, and then after a while was taken to Russia. In fact, he said, the Russian military carried out the abduction of a person in the territory of another state. "We cannot be illegal in our territory. There will be consequences if Yerevan's requirements remain unanswered," Pashinyan said.

Recall that Armenian Prime Minister Nicol Pashinyan stated that his country is not an ally of Russia in the war against Ukraine. Pashinyan suggests that Armenia can revise his membership in the CDC, but NATO membership is an obvious red line for Russia and "is not a question discussed. " On November 14, Pashinyan refused to participate in the CDCs Summit in Minsk.
