Pashinyan arrives in Russia from Germany

Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan will travel directly from Germany's Hamburg to Moscow, Pashinyan said at a press briefing.

According to the PM, he will attend a meeting of the Intergovernmental Council of the Eurasian Economic Union, which will be held in Moscow on December 11-12.

Pashinyan stressed that Yerevan is deepening relations with the European Union, and on the other hand, he's leaving for Moscow from here.

"When that point comes and we realize that there is incompatibility, then we will think [about] what decision to make,” Nikol Pashinyan said.

The PM stressed that leaving the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) is not an objective, but becoming an EU member is an objective for Armenia. 

According to him, Yerevan realizes that simultaneous membership in the EAEU and the EU is not possible, and there is a point at which a decision must be made.

"But today is not that point; today there is no need to make a decision," Nikol Pashinyan said.
