Russia has begun threatening Armenia over its course toward closer ties with the European Union. Moscow sees a risk to bilateral cooperation between the two countries, APA reports citing Kommersant.
In particular, Moscow is threatening to cancel preferential supplies of gas, oil products, and diamonds. The warning is contained in a letter from Russian Energy Minister Sergey Tsivilyov to Armenia’s Ministry of Territorial Administration and Infrastructure.
Moscow claims that Yerevan’s European integration puts at risk the foundation of bilateral trade, economic, and investment cooperation.
As a result, the Russian side is considering unilaterally suspending or fully terminating the existing intergovernmental agreement.
