Zakharova: Pashinyan shares Brussels' guidelines on worsening citizens' lives

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan must share Brussels' guidelines on worsening citizens' lives, since he associates himself with the European Union and Brussels bureaucracy, said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova.

"And do you remember that the main, well, as we now understand, practical task of the Brussels bureaucracy is to make citizens of their countries, the countries of their union, live worse, not better? Well, if Nikol Vovayevich Pashinyan associates himself specifically with the Brussels bureaucracy, he probably also accepts these so-called guidelines," she said on Sputnik radio.

According to Zakharova, unlike the EU, cooperation in the EAEU is not politicized, is built on the basis of respect and equality, on the principles of a free market, fair competition, and legality.
