The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) of Armenia has responded to the note of the Russian embassy in the prescribed manner. Vahan Hunanyan, the MFA spokesperson, told Armenian News-NEWS.am about this—but did not disclose the content of this note.
"The content of the note is part of the internal diplomatic record; therefore, we do not consider its publicizing correct," said Hunanyan.
On August 17, the Russian embassy in Armenia sent a note to the Armenian MFA due to the false anti-Russian accusations circulating against Russia in the Armenian local information domain.
In the statement of the embassy, it was noted that they are upset by the cynical speculations circulating in the local information domain, and which contain disrespectful and false accusations of the Russian organizations’ complicity in the tragic explosion that occurred in the Surmalu shopping market in Yerevan on August 14.
