Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated that the events taking place in Armenia are the country's internal affair.
"The Church has always been one of the main pillars of Armenian society, and we would not want it to be subjected to unjustified attacks without any serious basis," Lavrov told reporters after the meeting of the CSTO Foreign Affairs Council.
"We are interested in this situation being resolved as soon as possible on the basis of full respect for the Constitution of Armenia, the rights of believers, as well as other human rights," the Russian Foreign Minister emphasized.
