In a briefing with journalists, Spokesperson of the US State Department referred to the meeting between Armenia's Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken scheduled for April 5.
Matthew Miller, in particular, commented on the statement of the spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry that "such initiatives are of concern to Moscow, because, according to Maria Zakharova, they are not aimed at peace between Baku and Yerevan, but at creating dividing lines and an anti-Russian agenda in the South Caucasus.
"So I would say if anything the – some of the turbulence we have seen in the region has been fueled by Russia’s actions over the past few months. With respect to this meeting in Brussels, as I said yesterday, it is to focus on economic resilience for Armenia as it works to diversify its trade partnerships and address humanitarian needs, and nothing else," Miller said.
