Russian Federation Council Speaker Valentina Matviyenko has said that Armenia’s decision regarding its membership in the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) will not affect the bloc’s stability.
She also noted growing interest among other countries in cooperation with the EAEU, TASS reports.
“As for the stability of the Eurasian Economic Union, regardless of what decision the Armenian authorities make, it will in no way affect the stability of the union. It has proved its effectiveness and demonstrated that it is mutually beneficial,” Matviyenko said.
She also stated that Armenia would lose a great deal if it withdrew from the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), describing Yerevan’s grievances against the organization as unfounded.
