Russia has issued a note of protest to the Armenian Foreign Ministry, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said.
"We consider the visit to Bucha by head of Yerevan’s Nor-Nork administrative district Tigran Ter-Margaryan and Armenian Ambassador Vladimir Karapetyan as official Yerevan’s openly unfriendly step," Maria Zakharova said.
According to her, a note of protest was sent to the Armenian foreign ministry following inadmissible statements against Russia and assistance to the Ukrainian army, TASS reported.
The diplomat added that she did not expect anything different from such a figure as Tigran Ter-Margaryan, a supporter of Aram Sarksyan’s Republic party.
"It is deplorable that the Armenian authorities are lining up with this," Zakharova said.
