Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Armenian President Vahagn Khachaturyan as well as the country’s Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan on the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations with Russia and noted that a considerable experience of cooperation in all directions has been attained by both countries.
"Russia and Armenia maintain a substantive political dialogue, develop fruitful cooperation in trade, the economy, science and technology, culture, and many other areas. Moscow and Yerevan coordinate their efforts within the CSTO, EAEU, CIS and other international structures. The steady implementation of the trilateral agreements concluded in 2020 and 2021 helps to strengthen security and stability in the South Caucasus," his message reads.
Additionally, the Russian leader expressed confidence "that further fostering the Russian-Armenian friendly allied ties meets the interests of our brotherly peoples."
He wished good health to the Armenian president and prime minister and "peace and prosperity" to Armenian citizens.
On April 3, 1992, Armenia and Russia signed a memorandum on establishing diplomatic relations and over past decades demonstrated close allied interaction.
