Russian FM: Attempts being made to drag Armenia into anti-Russian  camp to inflict  " maximum pain" on Russia 

ArmInfo.  They are trying to drag Armenia into the anti-Russian camp to inflict "maximum pain" on Russia.  According to RIA Novosti, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov made this statement  while speaking at the assembly of the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy. "The West is trying to tear  our allies away from us, starting primarily with our neighbors—just  as it did with Georgia and Moldova, as it is currently doing with  Ukraine, and as it is now attempting to drag Armenia into that same  flawed logic," Lavrov said.

The Minister emphasized that all of these actions serve a single  purpose. "To inflict as much pain on Russia as possible, or, if you  will, to complicate the task of preserving and strengthening Russia  as a truly great power and civilization," Lavrov underscored.
