TASS reports that Nastasin commented on the election of former RFE/RL Armenian service employee and U.S. citizen Armen Koloyan as director of the Public Radio of Armenia.
The diplomat noted that “the United States and the West are pursuing the goal of turning public opinion against Russia everywhere.”
“They want to downplay the importance of the centuries-old Russian-Armenian friendship and the assistance that Moscow has provided and is providing to brotherly Armenia in different areas,” he added.
