“We believe that our Armenian colleagues’ move is not anti-Russian in nature, but nevertheless, it poses significant harm to Russian-Armenian relations in practice.
We call on our allies to carefully assess the consequences of joining the Rome Statute and evaluate possible risks to our allied relations with Russia. In this regard, I address the parliamentarians,” said Yuri Vorobyov, the Deputy Chairman of the Federation Council, during a meeting of the inter-parliamentary commission for cooperation between the Federal Assembly of Russia and the National Assembly of Armenia.
