Russian President Vladimir Putin's press secretary Dmitry Peskov considers the statements of Armenian Security Council Secretary Armen Grigoryan provocative, APA reports.
Dmitry Peskov told the "News.am" website that Grigoryan's statements should be considered provocation: "These statements do not reflect the truth. None of the Russian officials made a statement about this and did not convey it to the Armenian side through someone."
Note that A. Grigoryan stated in an interview with the Armenian Public Television that Moscow is pressuring Yerevan by various means in order for Armenia to join the Russia-Belarus union state and to provide a corridor through its territory to Azerbaijan.
