Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has criticized the EU's observation mission in Armenia

Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova has sharply criticized the European Union's observation mission in Armenia, accusing it of having destabilizing objectives in the South Caucasus. She described the mission as anti-Azerbaijani, anti-Russian, and anti-Iranian, emphasizing that it was launched without coordinating with Azerbaijan, a key regional player with a vital interest in stability.

Zakharova also accused the EU of using Armenia as a tool to expand its influence in the region, suggesting the mission is part of a broader geopolitical strategy. She warned that the mission would only fuel tensions and transform the South Caucasus into an arena of rivalry, undermining regional efforts to resolve issues without external interference.
