16 Evacuated Are Not Our Citizens, But Citizens of Armenia and Belarus: Margarita Simonyan

The editor-in-chief of Russian RT television, Margarita Simonyan, wrote on her Twitter account: "What surprises me about the evacuation from China is that 16 of those evacuated, to put it bluntly, are not our citizens, but citizens of Armenia, Belarus, and Kazakhstan. What kind of patch is this for us? It turns out that these people came to their embassy to be saved, and they are told: 'What are you doing? How can we evacuate you?' According to old traditions, go to the Russians; they save everyone. This was occurring during the glorious 30th year of independence."

It is noteworthy that some Armenian citizens have been evacuated from China through Russian airlines.
