Pashinyan Wants Public Debate of European Parliament's Armenia Resolution
Armenian PM Nikol Pashinyan has welcomed yesterday’s adoption of a special resolution by the European Parliament that calls for closer ties between Yerevan and the European Union.
Pashinyan, at today’s government cabinet session, said the resolution needs to be publicly debated since it would lead to greater ties between Armenia and Europe and place greater strains on Armenia’s relations with Moscow.
Yesterday’s resolution openly welcomed Armenia’s suspending it membership in the Russian-backed CSTO military alliance.
“This is another opportunity to discuss the vision of the future of the Republic of Armenia, and I hope that the political forces of the Republic of Armenia, non-governmental organizations, different layers of society, citizens will express their attitude towards this message from the European Parliament, because such messages need a much wider response than the government or the parliamentary majority,” Pashinyan said.
