Statements by Armenian authorities about the importance of maintaining and developing ties with Russia do not correspond to the practical steps being taken by the country’s leadership toward European Union membership, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

“We hear statements by Armenian officials about the importance of Moscow as a partner, as well as Yerevan’s intention to preserve and develop relations with Russia.
