YEREVAN, APRIL 7, ARMENPRESS. Russian Deputy PM Alexander Novak said that at the moment it’s difficult to say which countries will shift to ruble for buying Russian gas, but there is evident change in the rhetoric, ARMENPRESS reports, citing Ria Novosti, Novak told the reporters that there is confidence that all non-friendly countries will switch to the new mechanism.

Asked how many countries have already agreed to pay for gas in rubles, the Deputy Prime Minister said it was too early to talk about it.

“Payments for gas supplied in April are made differently. They are usually paid in May. Therefore, we will know exactly in May how and by which countries it will be implemented. I am sure that everyone will pay through this mechanism," he said.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
