Armenia often does a disservice to its own interests, as it looks to the West as a beacon, deputy director at the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Fourth Department of CIS countries Dmitry Masyuk said.

"We are feeling the destructive influence of Westerners in Armenia. To our deep regret, this South Caucasus republic does not put up strong resistance to these changes and continues to be oriented toward the West, often to the detriment of its national interests," Dmitry Masyuk said.

Speaking at the opening ceremony of the Gorchakov Foundation's education program called "Caucasus Dialogue", he cited a concrete example - Yerevan's move away from cooperation with the CSTO.
