Moscow intensified its criticism of Yerevan’s efforts to garner membership in the European Union, with Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov signaling that Armenia’s population should prepare for “several cold winters.

Moscow wants to resume arms control talks with the United States "as soon as possible," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday. Such negotiations are "in the interests of the whole world" and the peoples of both countries, Peskov told reporters at his Friday briefing, adding that the ball is now in the Americans' court.

Lavrov responded that while Moscow has strategic partnerships and allied relationships with Armenia as well as with Azerbaijan it has a “vested interest” in seeing Armenia and Azerbaijan normalize their relations.

Lavrov, according to a statement released by his office, said Russia “has always valued and continues to value fraternal ties with the Armenian people, with Armenia.”
