Maria Zakharova, Head of the Russian Foreign Ministry's press service, criticized Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan's statement about the reasons behind the deployment of the EU mission to the border with Azerbaijan, AzVision.az reports.
"If such statements are attempts to justify dragging EU officials to the regions, then it hardly can be considered successful," she said.
Zakharova noted that the Russian peacekeepers provide peace in Karabakh.
"Our military border guards work on the territory of Armenia, including on the Armenia-Azerbaijan border. We have never heard about Baku's concerns about this, and at the same time we are aware of Azerbaijan's critical attitude toward the EU's decision to deploy its observation mission in Armenia," she said.
